Controlled Resistivity Mortar for use with Sika Galvashield Anodes Sika Galvashield Embedding Mortar is a controlled resistivity mortar for use with Sika Galvashield discrete corrosion protection anodes. The mortar is designed to provide a low resistance environment around the anode and improved performance. - Easy to use, just add water.
- Controlled resistivity mortar.
- Portland cement based.
- High pH mortar with reservoir of alkali to resist acid generation at the anode.
- High bulk density.
- Free of carbonaceous or other oxidisable materials.
- Proven technology.

Usage Sika Galvashield Embedding Mortar may only be used by experienced professionals. - Used in conjunction with Sika Galvashield galvanic corrosion protection anodes to protect steel elements in a structure from corrosion.
- The mortar is used to embed Sika Galvashield anodes in vertical and horizontal situations.
- Used to fill grooves that house the anode lead wires.
- Provides an electrolytic bridge between the anode and the original concrete substrate.
