Zinc Propeller Anodes

Zinc propeller anodes are our most popular choice for propeller protection in salt water, owing to their superb density and structural composition that results in superior impact strength, in comparison with aluminium propeller anodes and magnesium propeller anodes.

Once installed on your propeller, the sacrificial zinc anode will corrode instead of your propeller as zinc is a more reactive metal than that of your propeller - this is where the term sacrificial anode comes from. We highly recommended you check and replace your zinc propeller anodes on a regular basis as part of the routine maintenance of your vessel.
