Stainless Steel Earth Rods
Earth Rods
Stainless Steel To BS EN 10088
Stainless steel earth rods are designed for use where problems may be caused by galvanic corrosion due to dissimilar metals being buried in close proximity – they are produced from stainless steel rod and are internally threaded for jointing.
Stainless steel earth rods are highly resistant to corrosion and a comprehensive range of earth rod driving heads, spikes, dowels and couplers are available.
Earth rods are manufactured from stainless steel according to BS EN 10088 standard with excellent corrosion resistance for harsh environmental conditions. For installations with high resistivity soil and ground conditions requiring earth rods with increased conductivity a full range of copper earth rods are available.
Solid copper earth rods are designed for use where extremely high corrosion resistance and exceptionally long service life is required.
Commonly used where soil conditions are more aggressive, i.e. areas with high levels of salt content. Soil conditions including temperature and type, moisture content and retention all determine the overall resistivity of the earth rod and system.
