Research and product development play an important role in MATCOR’s success as an organization.
 

Prepackaged Canister

Our cast iron anodes are also available prepackaged. The cast iron anode is centered within the sealed canister and surrounded with coke backfill. Prepackaging reduces the cost of installation by providing the anode and coke backfill in one package.

Use MATCOR prepackaged cast iron anodes for:

Ground bed applications

Our prepackaged cast iron anodes are available in tubular form with a center connection or in solid form with an end connection, and with your choice of cable. In addition, MATCOR prepackaged cast iron anodes can be manufactured with an epoxy cap or a heat-shrink cap. There are several options in terms of configuration.
