Anode Material Selection Guide

Selecting the correct anode material for your operating environment is essential for effective protection:

• Fresh water: Use aluminium anodes — aluminium has a greater difference of potential with other metals, which is important as fresh water has higher electrical resistance than salt water.
• Salt water: Use zinc or aluminium anodes. Aluminium works in salt water but is sacrificed faster; zinc is the traditional choice.
• Brackish water: Use zinc or aluminium anodes.
• Magnesium anodes are not recommended — the difference of potential is too great and can damage hull paint, particularly in brackish or salt water.
