Corrosion protection tube for use on an anchor of a post-tension anchor system

A corrosion protection apparatus for use with a tendon of a post-tension anchor system comprising:

• an anchor having a polymeric encapsulation, said polymeric encapsulation forming a trumpet portion extending outwardly of said anchor, said trumpet portion having a notch formed into an exterior surface thereof, said trumpet portion having a shoulder integral with said polymeric encapsulation and extending radially outwardly therefrom;
• and
• a tube having a connection portion at one end thereof, said connection portion having an interior surface received within said notch of said trumpet portion, said connection portion having a shoulder extending radially inwardly therefrom, said shoulder of said trumpet portion being juxtaposed against said shoulder of said connection portion, said tube having an uninterrupted constant exterior diameter extending outwardly from said connection portion, said trumpet portion of said anchor comprising a tubular body with an outwardly extending surface at an end opposite said anchor, said notch formed between said anchor and said outwardly extending surface.
