Vector Galvashield® XP
Vector Galvashield®XP embedded galvanic anodes are used in concrete rehabilitation to prevent the formation of new corrosion sites adjacent to completed patch repairs. Galvashield XP consists of a sacrificial zinc core that is activated by the surrounding specially formulated cementitious mortar. The small puck-shaped anode [2.5 in. (64 mm) diameter by 1.1 inch (27 mm) high] is quickly and easily fastened to the exposed reinforcing steel. Once installed, the zinc core corrodes preferentially to the surrounding rebar, thereby providing galvanic corrosion prevention to the adjacent reinforcing steel.
Applications:
Patch repairs
Bridge widening
Joints between new and existing concrete
Slab replacement
Expansion joint repair
Prestressed concrete
Post-tensioning anchors
Repair of epoxy-coated rebar |  |
Features and Benefits
|
|
Proven Technology - supported by independent test program. |
|
|
Focused protection - provides localized corrosion protection where it is needed the most, at the interface of the repair and the remaining contaminated concrete. |
|
|
Economical - low cost method of providing galvanic corrosion prevention to extend the service life of concrete patch repairs. |
|
|
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, requiring no special equipment or training. |
|
|
Low maintenance - requires no external power source or system monitoring. |
|
|
Measurable - anode performance can be easily monitored if required. |
|
|
Long lasting - 10 to 20 year service life reduces the need for future repairs. |

Vector Galvashield® CC
Vector Galvashield®CC embedded galvanic anodes are used to control on-going corrosion activity in concrete structures. Galvashield CC anodes consist of a sacrificial zinc core that is activated by the surrounding specially formulated precast cementitious mortar. The cylindrical anode, available in a variety of standard sizes, is quickly and easily installed into concrete that is mechanically sound but has on-going corrosion activity. Once installed, the zinc core corrodes preferentially to the surrounding rebar, thereby providing galvanic corrosion control to the adjacent reinforcing steel. Custom size anodes are available for specific project needs.
Applications:
Balconies
Columns and beams
Bridge decks
Parking garages
Piers and wharfs
Prestressed concrete
Post-tensioning anchors

Features and Benefits
|
|
Proven Technology - supported by independent test program. |
|
|
Focused protection - discrete anodes can be installed to provide corrosion protection in areas with high corrosion potentials or active corrosion. |
|
|
Economical - save money by only protecting the remaining chloride-contaminated (unrepaired) areas. |
|
|
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 - anode performance can be easily monitored if required. |
