How do MasterProtect 8065CP, 8105CP & 8160CP anodes work?

MasterProtect 8065CP, 8105CP & 8160CP are engineered discrete zinc anodes encased in a proprietary mortar. Integral galvanized 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 structures will be repaired
• Where chlorides are present in the structure
• Wherever corrosion of reinforcing steel is possible
• In post-tensioned, pre-stressed, or conventionally reinforced structures
• Interior or exterior

What are the unique features of MasterProtect 8065CP, 8105CP & 8160CP anodes?

• Chelation-Driven System
• Lower pH mortar
• High grade ASTM B418 type II zinc alloy
• Pre-twisted tie wires
• Increased zinc surface area
• Generates small current as it deteriorates, to protect reinforcing steel
• Enhanced transport of reaction by-products
• Not affected by carbonation or auto-corrosion

What are the benefits of MasterProtect 8065CP, 8105CP & 8160CP anodes?

• Prevents re-passivation of the zinc; optimizes service life
• Non-caustic; safe to handle
• Prolonged shelf life; reduced tendency toward degradation
• Proper stand-off from reinforcing steel; ensures optimal current throw; fast, easy installation
• Optimizes anode performance; extends service life; up to 50% more efficient than other anodes of same zinc weight
• Reduces maintenance costs
• Anode reactivates after wet/dry cycles; longer service life
• Greater shelf life
