Description
For vessels, which mostly cruise on inland (fresh) waters, we recommend aluminium anodes, since aluminium has a greater difference of potential with other metals than zinc.
- This is very important, as fresh water provides a higher electrical resistance than salt water.
- For sailing on salt water or brackish water, we recommend the use of zinc anodes.
- Aluminium anodes also function well in salt water, but are sacrificed at a much faster rate.
- There is also a choice of either rectangular or tear-drop shape to perfectly match the flowing lines of the boat.
- The material used for VETUS zinc anodes is of the highest U.S. Mil.-A-18001 K. specifications.
- VETUS aluminium anodes are made from an aluminium-indium-zinc alloy Mil.-A-24779 (SH).
Features:
- 27 new anodes
- Different streamlined shapes to suit most vessel parts
- In case of weld-on anodes: galvanized steel tags allow easy installation
