PRODUCT SHORT DESCRIPTION
Hot-dip galvanized steel ground rod / earth spike electrode for lightning protection and power-system grounding. High-corrosion resistance, pointed tip, couplable lengths, standard threads.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The galvanized ground rod, or earth electrode, is driven vertically into the soil to establish a reliable, low-resistance connection between an electrical system and the earth. Each rod is made from high-carbon steel with a thick hot-dip galvanized coating that resists corrosion in most soils, and features a hardened pointed tip for easy driving and a rolled thread at the top for coupling extensions or attaching clamps. Ground rods are essential for substation grounding grids, lightning protection systems, distribution transformers, telecom towers and residential electrical earths.

Key Features
• Low Earth Resistance — Provides a stable, low-resistance dissipation path for fault and lightning currents.
• Thick Galvanized Coating — Hot-dip zinc layer protects the steel core against soil corrosion for long life.
• Hardened Driving Tip — Tapered, hardened point penetrates firm soil with minimal deformation.
• Couplable Lengths — Rolled threads and couplers allow rods to be joined to reach deeper, moist soil.
• High Mechanical Strength — High-carbon steel withstands repeated hammer or power-driver impact.
• Standard Fittings — Compatible with ground rod clamps, connectors and earth pits.
• Broad Sizing — Available in common diameters and lengths for residential through utility use.
• Code Compliant — Meets GB/T 21698 / IEC 62566 / UL 467 style grounding-electrode requirements.
