    This document provides specifications for threaded copperbond earth rods and fittings from Furse. It lists various rod sizes with their lengths, thread sizes, diameters, and weights. It also lists earth rod couplings and driving stud fittings. Furse rods are made from 99.9% pure electrolytic copper bonded to a steel core, making them highly resistant to corrosion when driven into the ground. Their brass couplings also resist corrosion to provide a strong grounding system.

    Furse copperbond earth rods probably offer to the installer the best and
    most economical earth rods available. They are made by molecularly
    bonding 99.9% pure electrolytic copper on to a low carbon steel core.
    RB225 + ST200 + Furse rods are not of the sheathed type. They are highly resistant to
    CG270 corrosion, and because the steel used has a very high tensile strength,
    they can be driven by power hammers to great depths.
    The counter-bored couplings are made from high copper content alloy,
    commercial brass is not used. This again ensures excellent corrosion
    resistance and high strength.
    A Copper thickness minimum 250 microns.
