Chalfont, PA – MATCOR, Inc., a BrandSafway company and a leader in cathodic protection and AC mitigation solutions, announces the relaunch of its patented Iron Gopher® Linear Anode, now available at a significantly reduced price, providing cost-effective insurance to users for challenging horizontal directional drilling (HDD) projects, minimizing risks and reducing costs during installation.

This price reduction is the result of MATCOR’s move to in-house production, reducing reliance on third-party suppliers and shipping delays while ensuring superior quality control. The result is a stronger, more reliable linear anode that minimizes the risk of breakage during installation, helping you avoid idle crews and project delays.
“When we introduced the Iron Gopher, its cost limited adoption despite its superior performance,” said Ted Huck, Director of Sales at MATCOR. “By bringing production in-house, we’ve cut costs dramatically, allowing us to offer this premium solution at just a small premium over standard linear anode products.”
The Iron Gopher has already proven its value in major pipeline projects. A recent customer shared: “The Iron Gopher’s design and strength are unmatched for HDD applications. Installation was seamless, and the product is performing exactly as expected. We look forward to using it on future projects.”
