Anode Rosette Zinc Ø125mm (pair) Tecnoseal

ZINC ROSETTE ANODE Ø125MM (PER PAIR) TECNOSEAL: ESSENTIAL CATHODIC PROTECTION FOR YOUR BOAT

The zinc rosette anode Ø125mm (per pair) Tecnoseal is an essential element for the cathodic protection of your boat. Designed to be attached to different parts of the boat, it sacrifices its zinc to protect noble metals such as the propeller, propeller shaft and submerged parts against galvanic corrosion in salt water. Its installation is simple and its regular replacement ensures the longevity of the metallic components of your boat.

PRINCIPLES OF CATHODIC PROTECTION

Galvanic corrosion occurs when different metals immersed in an electrolyte (seawater) are in electrical contact. The least noble metal (here, the zinc of the anode) corrodes faster than the others. The sacrificial anode, such as the zinc rosette anode Tecnoseal, has the role of concentrating this corrosion on itself, thus preserving the more expensive and essential parts for the propulsion and safety of the boat. Regular monitoring of the anode's condition is crucial to ensure effective protection.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT ANODE FOR YOUR BOAT

The choice of the anode depends on several factors, including the type of water (salt, brackish or fresh), the metal surface to be protected and the conditions of use of the boat. The zinc rosette anode is particularly suitable for marine environments in salt water. Make sure to select an anode whose size and shape are compatible with the intended location on your boat for optimal attachment and protection.
