What are Anodes?

Anodes protect the various metal components ( propeller, shaft, keel, rudder, engine) from deterioration caused by galvanic corrosion when your boat’s hull is submerged.

Galvanic corrosion is the deterioration of metal, which occurs when dissimilar metals are joined together by a conductor in an electrically conductive fluid – the least noble metal (the anode) dissolves while the most noble metal (the cathode) remains protected.

A galvanic anode, or sacrificial anode, is the main component of a galvanic cathodic protection system used to protect buried or submerged metal structures from corrosion. They are made from a metal alloy with a more “active” voltage than the metal of the structure.

Anode deterioration must be monitored carefully and replaced every year when doing the antifouling/launching or when the anode is 75% dissolved.

Thanks to exceptional anode alloy quality, which is the basis of this application, by the fusion of particular alloys containing high-quality metals in fair proportion, a pile (anode) with high efficiency is obtained.

The choice of Zinc anodes depends of the nature of the water:
Saltwater = Zinc Anodes.

Zinc is used because it has a higher voltage in the water so the current is more inclined to flow from it than from the propeller.
