The Galvashield® XP range of embedded galvanic anodes are used to mitigate ring anode corrosion when repairing reinforced concrete structures. Designed for optimum performance and ease of installation, the alkali-activated (Type1A) anodes are comprised of high purity zinc cast around a steel tie wire with an enhanced formulated cement-based mortar with an internal pH of 14 or greater that keeps the zinc active over the life of the anode.
