Titanium Wire Anodes

DESCRIPTION

Wire anodes are manufactured using solid titanium that meets ASTM B338 Grade 1 or 2 Standards. These anodes are coated with either mixed metal oxide or platinum.

Wire anodes are available in two standard sizes (1.6mm and 3mm), with two standard current ratings. Other sizes are available on request.

APPLICATION(S)

Canistered Anodes
Groundbeds (deep, shallow, horizontal, etc)
Sea Water
Brackish Water
Mud
Fresh Water

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Wire anodes have an extremely low consumption rate. The titanium substrate remains constant throughout the design life of the anode.
