MasterProtect 8065CP 8105CP 8150CP

Embedded Galvanic Anode for the Protection of Reinforcing Steel

How Does MasterProtect 8065CP/8105CP/8160CP Work?

MasterProtect 8065CP/8105CP/8160CP Galvanic Anodes are engineered discrete zinc anodes encased in a proprietary mortar. Integral galvanised tie wires permit easy connection to concrete reinforcement. As a key component of a complete concrete repair strategy, the sacrificial zinc core generates a small electrical current as it is consumed, protecting the reinforcing steel from accelerated corrosion.

Recommended Uses:
  • Where reinforced concrete or masonry structures will be repaired (interior or exterior)

  • Where chlorides are present in the structure

  • Wherever corrosion of reinforcing steel is possible in post-tensioned, pre-stressed, or conventionally reinforced structures

What Are the Benefits of MasterProtect 8065CP/8105CP/8160CP?
  • Chelation Driven System - prevents re-passivation of the zinc, optimises service life

  • Lower pH mortar - non-caustic, safe to handle

  • High-grade ASTM B418 type II zinc alloy - prolonged shelf life; reduced tendency toward degradation

  • Pre-twisted tie wires - proper stand-off from reinforcing steel, ensures optimal current throw, fast, easy installation

  • Increased zinc surface area - optimises anode performance, extends service life; up to 50% more efficient than other anodes of the same zinc weight

  • Generates small current as it deteriorates, to protect reinforcing steel - extends service life and reduces maintenance costs

  • Enhanced elimination of reaction by-products - anode reactivates after wet/dry cycles, longer service life

  • Not affected by carbonation or auto-corrosion - greater shelf life
