MasterProtect 8105 CP
Embedded galvanic anodes for the protection of reinforcing steel. Anode weight 0.34kg, Zinc content 105g.
Description:
MasterProtect 8105CP are engineered discrete zinc anodes encased in a proprietary mortar with integral galvanized tie wires for easy connection to concrete reinforcing steel. As a component of a complete concrete repair strategy, the sacrificial zinc core generates a small electrical current as it is consumed, protecting the reinforcing steel from accelerated corrosion.
Product Highlights:
Lower pH mortar is non-caustic and safer to handle than high-alkali mortars
ASTM B418 Type II zinc alloy prolongs shelf life and effectiveness
Chelation-driven activation prevents repassivation of zinc core after long periods of inactivity
Increased zinc surface area optimizes anode performance; 50% increase in efficiency versus other anodes of similar weight
Pre-twisted tie wires ensure proper stand-off from steel for fast, easy installation
Enhanced transport of reaction byproducts promotes anode reactivation after wet/dry cycles, prolonging service life
Applications:
Interior and exterior
Horizontal, vertical and overhead
Above and below grade
Corrosion protection of steel-reinforced concrete
High-chloride environments, such as bridges, parking structures, piers
Substrates:
- Steel-reinforced concrete
- Pre-stressed concrete
- Post-tensioned concrete
