Sacrificial Zinc Anodes ARDEX BRX 60 LO
Description:
ARDEX BRX 60 LO is a hybrid anode based on a composition of a multi-layered zinc core coated with a patented ion conductive self-moistening overlay paste keeping the anodes active during their entire service-life and pre-embedded in a hybridic silicate based mortar. ARDEX BRX 60 LO anodes are utilized in areas where high expectancy of corrosion is expected. They guarantee corrosion control and preventing new locations with initiation of corrosion.
ARDEX BRX 60 LO has been designed to be used in conjunction with the ARDEX Concrete Repair Range – ARDEX BR 340 and ARDEX BR 460 FLOW.
FEATURES
- Simple and fast installation
- Effective and long-term protection
- Protects against incipient anode effect
Technical Data ARDEX BRX 60 LO:
Typical corrosion, defined as galvanic corrosion, occurs when two different types of metal are in contact with each other and surrounded by an electrolyte. The metal with the most negative electrochemical potential will corrode or sacrifice itself to protect the other metal with a more positive electrochemical potential. In a similar way, the ARDEX BRX 60 LO hybrid anodes will corrode and sacrifice themselves protecting the steel or reinforcing structure being attached to it. Each anode will create an extended electric field around itself within the electrolyte commonly referred to as “throwing power” which is the protecting zone of the anode.
