High Silicon Cast Iron Solid Stick Anode
High silicon cast iron anodes are amongst the most widely used anodes for impressed current cathodic protection systems. Due to its high content of silicon, the anode surface is readily and continually oxidized with a thin film of hydrated silicon oxides, which protects the anode from metal pitting. YUXI’s high silicon cast iron stick anodes exhibit extraordinary corrosion resistance and low consumption rate in low-pH environment.
Description
—— Chemical Composition ——
YUXI developed rigid controls for the chill casting process in accordance with the highest standards — meeting X-Ray Level 1 as per ASTM E186/E446, chemistry to either ASTM A518-99 Gr 1 or 3. ASTM A518 Grade 3 chemistry is particularly suited for more severe environments(such as brackish water or saltwater), where the level of chromium is elevated to enhance anode performance.
—— Electrochemical Properties ——
Due to its high content of silicon, the anode surface is readily and continually oxidized with a thin film of hydrated silicon oxides, which protects the anode from metal pitting. Our high silicon cast iron anodes exhibit extraordinary corrosion resistance and low consumption rate in low-pH environment.
—— Practical Application ——
Our high silicon cast iron stick anodes are widely used in vertical deepwell and horizontal groundbed trench to protect buried structures from corrosion. High utilization of the anode weight (60% ~ 70%) results in an economic cathodic protection solution.
