Furse Solid Copper & Stainless Steel Earth Rods

Solid Copper Earth Rods

• Used where soil conditions are aggressive, ie high salt content.
• Have a tapped hole at each end which allows them to be joined by a coupling dowel
• Material:  99.9% hard Drawn Copper
• Standard:  BS:EN 62561-2, BS 7430

Stainless Steel Earth Rods 

These are similar to Solid Copper Rods but are more anodic than copper and are useful where galvanic corrosion might occur due to buried dissimilar metals being in close proximity to each other.

• The current carrying capacity of the Stainless Steel Earth Rod in relation to copper is poor.
• Stainless Steel Earth Rods have a tapped hole at each end which allows them to be joined together by means of a coupling dowel and can, if required, be supplied in different grades.
• Recommended for clay soils and marine/offshore environments.
• Material Stainless Steel
• Standard:  BS: EN 62562-2, BS 7430
