Galvashield® XP Products for Concrete Repair

Galvashield^® XP is the original embedded galvanic anode for concrete repairs. For over 15 years, the Galvshield range has been protecting structures around the world. The anode units are alkali-activated with an internal pH of 14 or greater to keep the zinc active over the life of the anode and are non-corrosive to reinforcing steel. Once installed, the zinc anode corrodes preferentially to the adjacent reinforcing steel to provide galvanic corrosion prevention or corrosion control.

Galvashield XP anodes are classified as Type 1 Anodes – embedded in concrete repairs. Galvashield anodes improve the durability of concrete repairs by providing targeted protection where it is needed the most, at the interface between new and old concrete.

Applications:

Concrete repairs
Bridge widening
Joints between new/existing concrete
Slab replacement
Expansion joint repair
Pre-stressed concrete
Post-tensioning anchors
