Electrode Products recommends the following coating for the best performance in steel coating applications.
- OPTIMA™ IOA-HF (Iridium Oxide) - Offers Extremely High Performance and Minimizes Your Cost
Increase Line Speed
Through the high oxygen-producing activity of OPTIMA anodes, line speed can be significantly increased — without sacrificing product quality. Our team of process and electrochemical engineers works directly with our customer's operational, engineering and maintenance personnel to provide them with ALL the advantages of our coating technology.
Environmental Benefits
We have over 20 years of experience in helping our customers to eliminate the disposal costs involved in safely eliminating soluble anodes in an environmentally responsible manner.
The remnants of lead or graphite anodes require costly, environmentally sound disposal. The use of OPTIMA™ IOA-HF coated titanium anodes eliminates this lead hazard. One need only compare the cost of using our anodes to the costs involved with the installation, disposal and labor necessary to maintain a lead system to see the obvious benefits that OPTIMA anodes provide.
Ease of Maintenance/ Operational Advantages
Our OPTIMA™ titanium anodes are lightweight and recoatable. Their long-lasting coating reduces maintenance shutdowns, and the consistent operating current they require will reduce the operator time required to monitor and control the process, as well as produce rust-proof, high-quality zinc-coated steel strips (for automobiles, appliances and building materials) and tin-coated steel strips (for safe food containers). Our stable coating ensures that our customers manufacture a high-quality, reproducible product.
When it comes to steel coating applications, only OPTIMA IOA-HF anodes from Electrode Products can offer the reliability, economic value and satisfaction you deserve.
