ZincMat™ is
an anode-grade grounding mat specially designed to work in conjunction
with cathodically protected and isolated structures. The electrochemical
potential of
ZincMat™ in
soils, waters, and other corrosion media is always more active than that
of steel, cast iron and other ferrous materials of construction.
When
ZincMat™
is electrically coupled to the structure, the galvanic cell formed
protects the steel rather than corrode
the structure.
ZincMat™
is
easy to install and provides for increased soil contact,
therefore reducing resistance and improving grounding capacity. When used for cathodic protection purposes, the reduced
circuit resistance results in improved anode current output.
