Boat anodes are typically made from zinc, aluminium, or magnesium. They attach to your boat’s hull, propeller shaft, or other metal parts below the waterline. They sacrificially corrode to protect critical components like engines and propellers from galvanic corrosion—where dissimilar metals in seawater create a damaging current.
By sacrificing themselves, anodes prevent costly damage by corroding first. Ensure peak performance and prolong the life of your vessel with regular inspection and replacement of depleted anodes.
