This Tecnoseal 0.30 kg aluminum anode protects rudders, hulls, and trim tabs from galvanic corrosion by degrading instead of the surrounding metal parts. The anode is suitable for use in saltwater and brackish water.
Aluminum anodes have a greater negative charge than traditional zinc anodes and can therefore be more active over a longer period. Throughout the product's service life, an aluminum anode produces approximately 70% more amp/hours than a comparable zinc anode.
The anode is mounted flat against the rudder blade, hull, or trim tab using bolts through the pre-drilled mounting holes. The contact surface must be cleaned of paint and rust to ensure a direct metal connection, and the anode must not be painted.
