zinc ribbon anode is an ideal primary or supplemental cathodic protection system. It can also be used as a temporary system prior to the installation of an impressed current system.
Zinc ribbon anodes are produced according to ASTM-B-418 type I and type II alloy standard in the shape of diamond.
Zinc ribbon anode can be used in fresh water, sea water environments, also can be used in underground structures.
