  • Steel core with a thick, molecularly bonded copper layer (typically >250 microns) for optimal balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and conductivity. Available in various diameters (e.g., 12.7mm, 14.2mm, 17.2mm, 20mm, 25mm) and lengths (e.g., 1.2m, 1.8m, 2.4m, 3.0m).
  • Sectional Rods: Threaded for coupling and deep-driven installations.
• Solid Copper Earth Rods:
  • Premium solution for maximum conductivity and superior corrosion resistance, ideal for critical applications and highly corrosive environments.
• Galvanized Iron (GI) Earth Rods/Plates:
  • Cost-effective and durable options for general earthing applications, especially where soil conditions are less aggressive.
• Earth Plates (Copper/GI):
  • Available in various dimensions (e.g., 600x600x3mm) to provide a large surface area for dissipation, particularly effective in areas with higher soil resistivity.
• Chemical / Maintenance-Free Earthing Electrodes:
  • Pre-filled with specialized, non-corrosive, conductive compounds (e.g., Bentonite, Ground Enhancing Material) to create a consistent, low-resistance earthing path, requiring minimal to no maintenance.

2. Ground Enhancing Material (GEM) & Bentonite

• Specialized Compounds:
  • Designed to significantly lower soil resistivity, improve conductivity, and retain moisture around the electrode. Ideal for challenging soil conditions (rocky, sandy, high resistivity) where achieving target resistance is difficult. Non-corrosive and environmentally friendly options available.

3. Earthing Conductors

• High-Purity Copper Tapes & Wires:
  • Stranded Copper Conductors: Flexible and high-conductivity cables (e.g., 16 sqmm to 120 sqmm) for main earth lines, bonding, and equipment grounding.
  • Solid Copper Tapes: (e.g., 25x3mm to 50x6mm) for direct burial, lightning protection down conductors, and equipotential bonding.
• Hot-Dip Galvanized Iron (HDGI) Strips & Wires:
  • Durable and cost-effective alternatives for lightning protection systems, structural earthing, and general bonding in suitable environments.

4. Earthing Connectors & Clamps

• Rod-to-Cable Clamps: Securely connect earthing conductors to earth rods.
• Tape Clamps & Couplers: For connecting and extending earthing tapes.
• U-Bolt Clamps: Versatile clamps for various conductor and rod sizes.
• Test Links & Disconnecting Links: Facilitate easy earth resistance testing and system isolation without interrupting the main earthing connection.
• Bimetallic Connectors: Prevent galvanic corrosion when joining dissimilar metals (e.g., copper to aluminium).

5. Exothermic Welding Materials
