GSC SuperAnodes are specifically designed to inhibit the corrosion of concrete reinforced structures. The anodes are typically embedded within the concrete or repair mortar and are electrically connected to the reinforcement.

GSC Superanodes are made of laminated zinc with a 99.99% purity covered by two layers of zinc-anode-activator-paste. The anode’s designed service life is between 10 years and 20 years depending upon selected size and correct system design.

Each anode is sealed in a plastic bag to avoid contamination during shipping and storing. Prior to application the packing is removed, and the anode is ready to be applied.

Advantages of GSC SuperAnodes 

• Needs no anode wiring.
• Simple installation
• When correctly designed will give enough current in dry and arid environments.
• Pre-stressed or post-tensioned tendons will not be subject to hydrogen embrittlement due to acceptable operating potentials.
• Extremely suitable for patch repairs
• Current densities are naturally self-adjusting depending on the current required by the structure.
• When applied in aggressive environments the current densities are comparable with impressed current systems.
• Need no servicing or monitoring.
