Small High Silicon Cast Iron Anodes

SMALL HIGH SILICON CAST IRON ANODES

Product Description


Composition: ASTM A 518 Grade 3
Silicon 14.20 - 14.75% Manganese 1.50% max.
Chromium 3.25 - 5.00% Copper 0.50% max.
Carbon 0.70 - 1.10% Molybdenum 0.20% max.

 
Cable Connection Provisions
Anotec manufactures anodes to accomodate custormers' connection requirements, including both established industry standard methods and special custom designs whenever warranted by demand. Typical features are:
 
Type A connectionType A: Cast groove in hollow anode interior accepts customers' snap ring connector or caulked lead.   Type S connectionType S: Cast cavity in anode end accepts caulked lead connection.   Type T connectionType T: Cast conical seat in tubular anode accepts Anotec conical lead anchor soldered to cable.  
Special features may be developed to suit requirements on application to the factory.

"Chill Cast" in Metal Molds
Anotec's proprietary process assures consistent weight, greater density, less flake graphite grain boundary, and lower chemical segregation than Sand Cast Anodes. The ANOTEC Chill Cast structure is imilar to "Spin Cast" Tubular Anodes. 
Grain Structure Makes a Difference
 

Typical cross section of a sand cast anodeA typical cross section of a sand cast anode:
Skin of non-porous equiaxial grains. Remaining section relatively porous from interdendritic shrinkage and porosity. Predominantly flake graphite with larger boundary areas than equivalent spheroidical graphite.

Typical cross section of an ANOTEC anodeA typical ANOTEC anode cross section:
A dense skin of minute columnar grains and a dense core of equiaxial grains. Occasionally, very fine interdendritic porosity at center. Predominantly spheroidal shaped graphite. Similar to the structure of vacuum refined High Silicon Iron.

Performance
Accelerated corrosion tests confirm that Anotec Chill Cast Anodes perform significantly better (up to 19%) than sand cast anodes in chloride and sulphate environments.
Test reports available on request.
