Let's understand Cathodic Protection ⚡🛡 Cathodic protection is a technique used to prevent or reduce corrosion of metal structures, such as pipelines, tanks, and offshore platforms. It involves the application of a direct current (DC) to the metal surface to counteract the electrochemical reactions that cause corrosion. Corrosion is an electrochemical process where metals react with their environment, typically in the presence of moisture and oxygen, resulting in the degradation of the metal. I

Our award-winning Zinoco offers excellent corrosion protection due to its durability, sacrificial protection and damage tolerance. The coating is applied in a 3 stage process, very similar to the process for applying any type of coating to a bare surface. First the rails undergo a degreasing process, this cleans the rail and ensures there are no contaminents present. Next the rail passes through a grit shot blasting machine. This creates a slightly rough surace to ensure maximum adhesion propert
