Sacrificial anodes are essential for protecting all underwater metal components from galvanic corrosion — required on wooden, fibreglass, aluminium, and steel hulls alike. The Vetus V-Quipment Zinc Hull Anodes are manufactured to the highest standard, meeting U.S. MIL-A-18001K specification. Anodes that do not meet this specification have little or no protective effect.
Zinc anodes are recommended for salt water and brackish water use. For fresh water, aluminium anodes are preferred due to their greater potential difference with other metals. Connection kits are sold separately. Inspect annually and replace when 50% consumed.
