Aluminum Anode – Galv III A-3-60

Aluminum anodes are the most economical choice for corrosion protection. These anodes offer higher current efficiency and lower anode consumption than both magnesium and zinc in aqueous saline areas, making aluminum ideal for the protection of ship hulls on oceangoing vessels. Corrpro Offers an entire line of hull anodes made of two alloys. Alloy Type 3 generates a potential of 1.10, and has a lower current efficiency rating of 87% in free-flowing water. This anode material also performs better in saline mud and lower-chloride water. Because Alloy Type 3 has a more powerful driving voltage, fewer anodes are necessary to protect a given structure when elongated shapes are employed.

This Type 3 (Galv III) cylindrical anode measures 3"" x 30"" and features a ¾"" threaded rod core extending 4"" on both ends for flexible installation. Suitable for long-line cathodic protection in pipelines or infrastructure systems requiring robust corrosion resistance.
