This Tecnoseal zinc anode for propeller shafts is a shaft anode for a 55 mm propeller shaft and is intended for use in saltwater.
The zinc anode protects the propeller shaft against corrosion by corroding itself instead of the metal parts it is mounted on. It is supplied by Tecnoseal from Italy, Europe's largest zinc supplier.
The anode is designed as a two-piece clamp/split anode that is fastened around the shaft with bolts. The shaft must be cleaned of paint and rust before installation to ensure direct metal contact.
