Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers cast and wrought galvanic zincanodes

3、used for the cathodic protection of more noble metalsand alloys in sea water, brackish water, other saline electro-lytes, or other corrosive environments.1.2 Type I anodes are most commonly used for suchapplications.

Chemical Composition5.1 The anode shall be made from Spe

17、cial High Grade zincconforming to Specification B6, with suitable alloying addi-tions for Type I anodes. Composition of the anode alloy contentshall conform to the limits prescribed in Table 1.5.2 Evidence from laboratory tests shows that Type Icomposition may suffer intergranular corrosion. Suscept

18、ibilityto intergranular corrosion increases with increasing tempera-ture and is particularly severe above approximately 120F(50C). Intergranular corrosion can be avoided (at tempera-tures above about 120F) with Type II composition, whichmust be made from special high-grade zinc with an ironcontent w

Methods of Chemical Analysis6.1 The chemical compositions enumerated in this specifi-cation shall, in case of disagreement, preferably be determinedby methods mutually agreed upon or the methods listed inTable 2 (note: spectrochemical metho

20、ds may includeISO 3815-1, ISO 3815-2) approved for referee purposes byASTM. Test Methods E 536 shall be used, except for Type II.7. Bolt Holes and Threads7.1 For anodes with integral inserts intended for attachmentby bolting, it is recommended that a bolt-hole spacing of 6 in.(152 mm) or even multip

Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance8.1 The zinc anodes shall be free of flash, burrs, cracks,blow holes, and surface slag, consistent with

22、good commercialpractice. Cast anodes shall not have shrinkage cavities exceed-ing14 the depth of the anode or 1 in.

The minimum number of anodes to be sampled shall beas specified in Table 3.9.1.2 Taking Sample for Chemical AnalysisEach selectedanode shall be sam

25、pled by drilling or machining with anonferrous tool. The use of a drill with a tungsten carbide tipis recommended. The tool bit or drill shall not penetrate intothe core material or a cored anode. The cuttings from all anodesin a lot shall be thoroughly mixed to form a uniform sample ofnot less than
