Contact SupplierWe are offering stainless steel ground rod.
stainless steel ground rods are used to overcome many of the problems caused by galvanic corrosion which can take place between dissimilar metals buried in close proximity. Other advantages of stainless steel rod are that they are highly resistant to corrosion are much more anodic than copper.
material: stainless steel
finish: natural
application: stainless steel earth rods are used where galvanic corrosion is likely to affect earth rods due to dissimilar metals buried in close proximity as copper earth rods are more vulnerable to galvanic corrosion. Stainless steel rod is more anodic than copper and are more effective against corrosion problem.
even though many of our products are standard items and of standard bs grade, we also make special tailor made products made exactly to the requirements of our customers in terms of material grade and size.
in a grounding system, the ground electrode provides the physical connection to the earth and is the instrument used to dissipate current into it. There are two main types of electrodes.
- “natural” electrodes are intrinsic to the facility and include metal underground water pipe, the metal frame of the building (if effectively grounded), and reinforcing bar in concrete foundations.
- “made” electrodes are installed specifically to improve the performance of the grounding system and include wire meshes, metallic plates, buried copper conductor and rods or pipe driven into the ground.
the ground rod is the most widely used grounding electrode.
