Heavy weight concrete anchors
The extra weight for concrete anchors, reached by adding our heavyweight natural aggregate MagnaDense, will improve the protection and stability of your anchoring product. Using our product allows for increasing the concrete density up to 4 t/m3.
Various forms of concrete anchoring
Precast concrete anchors among others, prevent undersea currents from dislodging pipelines from their bedding in the sea. However, you know that anchoring comes in many shapes and sizes, such as:
- Concrete weight coating for pipelines
- Erosion and coastal protection
- Concrete blocks/anchors for tidal energy devices
- Protection covers
- Crossing bridges
- Riverbed protection with concrete mattresses
Next, you can watch the video below to learn more about the origin of the MagnaDense and the different offshore applications it can serve.
- Place a protective barrier around valuable installations.
- Keep installations at the seabed and protect them from buoyancy forces.
Also, it’s:
- Harmless to the environment.
- Non-reactive to seawater.
- Abrasion-resistant.
- Increasing the underwater lifetime for concrete.
All of which makes the LKAB Minerals’ product range of MagnaDense a natural fit for your concrete anchor production process.
