Sterndrive Anodes

Marine Sterndrive Anodes

Also known as outdrive anodes, we stock a leading range of sacrificial metal pieces that are made of a more reactive metal than the sterndrive on your vessel, thus sacrificing themselves to protect the outdrive unit from corrosion.

Sterndrives are popular because they offer several advantages over traditional inboard and outboard motors. They are more efficient than outboard motors, which results in better fuel economy and more power. They also provide better manoeuvrability and control than inboard motors. Additionally, sterndrives are relatively easy to install and maintain, which makes them a good choice for both recreational boaters and professionals.

Sterndrive anodes are typically made of zinc, aluminium or magnesium; and come in different shapes and sizes to fit different outdrive models. Aluminium sterndrive anodes offer protection in salt and fresh water, whilst zinc sterndrive anodes are more suited to salt water as the impact strength of the metal is superior compared to aluminium and magnesium. Magnesium sterndrive anodes are only suitable for use in fresh water, as the alloy reacts far more rapidly when exposed to sea water.
