Aluminum Sacrificial Anodes
FOR PLATFORMS

Deepwater Gaus brand aluminum platform and structural galvanic anodes are cast in low-iron, high-purity aluminium alloys, and can be manufactured in a wide variety of configurations for new construction or retrofitting. All "standard" configurations are shown below. In addition to these, Deepwater can cast anodes with bulk trapezoidal cross-sections to any specifications required. Please contact us for advice on optimizing an anode to suit your specific requirements.
