PL3

ETA-certified

Not only complies with European directives, but exceeds them with demonstrable safety, quality and structural performance in demanding applications.

Insulation

Fully electrically insulating plate between anchor head and anchor plate; electrical resistance is fully tested and documented.

Lifespan

With a design life of up to 100 years and advanced corrosion protection, the system offers performance that far exceeds standard expectations.

Information about strand anchor PL3

A PL3 strand anchor is a permanent ground anchor where the entire anchor system, from the bond length to the anchor head, is fully encapsulated within a corrugated PE duct and is completely electrically insulated from both the surrounding ground and the anchored structure.
The prestressing steel is isolated from both the ground and the structure over the entire anchor length. Continuous PE pipe without any interruption.
Fully protected against electrochemical corrosion by stray currents from underground railways, tramways, or high-voltage lines. The right choice in complex urban areas.
Complete insulation prevents electrolytic uptake of atomic hydrogen into the high-strength prestressing steel. This excludes one of the most dangerous failure mechanisms.
Deepro is the only company in the Netherlands certified for this protection level under EAD 160071-00-0102. It sets the new European market standard.
