Magnesium anodes are used to protect most buried metallic structures found in a range of high receptive soil, as magnesium has a greater driving potential than any other galvanic material.

Extruded magnesium anodes are normally used in water heaters, storage tanks, and in-ground installations. ELEMENTS INDUSTRIAL supplies a full line of extruded anodes which include both ribbon and rod forms. A solid steel core runs horizontally through all our rods and ribbon anodes for better efficient electrical discharge.
