Alkali-Activated (Type 2A) Embedded Galvanic Anodes for Corrosion Control in Reinforced Concrete Structures

Sika Galvashield CC embedded Type 2A (alkali-activated) galvanic anodes are used to mitigate ongoing corrosion and to prevent the initiation of new corrosion activity in sound reinforced concrete structures. The anodes consist of a high purity zinc anode core that is surrounded by a specially formulated precast cementitious mortar with an internal pH >14, keeping the zinc active over the life of the anode. Sika Galvashield CC anodes are available in three sizes to fit any structure and level of protection. The cylindical anodes are quickly and easily installed into drilled holes in concrete that is mechanically sound but has ongoing corrosion activity. Once installed, the zinc anode corrodes preferentially to protect the adjacent reinforcing steel.

  • Proven technology: extensive 20-year track record, supported by independent test program.
  • Focused protection: provides localised corrosion protection in areas with high corrosion potential or active corrosion.
  • Economical: low cost method by targeting only the remaining areas of high corrosive risk; protecting local areas that are chloride contaminated but sound, thereby reducing concrete breakout.
  • Versatile: effective in chloride-contaminated and carbonated concrete. Can be used for both conventionally reinforced and prestressed or post-tensioned concrete.
  • User friendly: installation is quick and easy.
  • Low maintenance: requires no external power source or system monitoring.
  • Measurable performance: anode performance can be easily monitored if required.
  • Long lasting: minimum 20-year anode service life* when using standard design tables; reducing the need for future repairs.
  • Full system: can be used in conjunction with Sika MonoTop, FerroGard, Margel and / or Sikagard technologies to offer a full corrosion management system.
Usage
  • Balconies. 
  • Reinforced concrete with high chloride content.
  • Car park decks, columns and beams.
  • Carbonated concrete.
  • Post-tensioning anchors.
  • Prestressed concrete.
  • Piers, wharves, piles pile caps and beams in a marine environment.
  • Bridge decks, piers, abutments, pier caps and girders.
  • Swimming pools.
  • Concrete tanks.
  • Underpasses and other highway structures.
 
Advantages
  • Proven technology: extensive 20-year track record, supported by independent test program.
  • Focused protection: provides localised corrosion protection in areas with high corrosion potential or active corrosion.

  • Full system: can be used in conjunction with Sika MonoTop, FerroGard, Margel and / or Sikagard technologies to offer a full corrosion management system.
         * As with all galvanic protection systems, service life is dependent upon a number of factors including reinforcing steel density, concrete conductivity, chloride concentration, humidity and anode spacing.

The following Tables provide guidelines for achieving the minimum current density for the appropriate corrosion risk category as stated, 20 years after installation.

        

NOTE: In warmer or more demanding conditions (such as marine environments), Sika Galvashield CCX anodes are recommended to achieve the 20 year anode life.
