Available Sections and Profiles
Extrusions
- Extruded Ribbon
- Extruded Rod (up to 115mm dia.)
- Custom die-making for special requirements
The extrusion process eliminates the oxidation and inclusions inherent in any casting process resulting in a high purity anode with a higher driving potential and longer life. The extrusion process also eliminates the wastage caused by smelting magnesium and is therefore more cost effective.
|
|
Castings
- Cast Discs and Irregular Profiles
- Machined profiles and custom fittings
- Custom-machined moulds for special requirements
For applications where the protection of objects with irregular geometries is required, anodes can be cast and machined to conform to almost any shape and size. Anodes can be mounted on studs, insulated stand-offs, cantilevered through-wall fittings or to customer’s specifications.
