All metals immersed in an
electrolyte (sea water for example) produce an electrical voltage. When
two dissimilar metals are in contact (electrically connected) they produce
a galvanic cell (like a battery), with the less noble
metal (Zinc) for example forming the anode and the more
noble metal (Stainless Steel) forming the cathode. The anode sacrifices
itself by corroding (giving up metal) to protect the cathode
- hence the term sacrificial anode.Why Are Performance Metals Premium
Anodes Better?Performance Metals anodes are made from Aluminum/Indium alloy.
This Aluminum/Indium alloy is more active so it gives better
protection than Zincs. Aluminum anodes are essential for Mercury
sterndrives. Zinc will not provide the correct protection for this
application. Mercury recommends aluminum anodes for both salt and
freshwater on their sterndrives. Aluminum anodes last 40% longer
than zinc anodes. Aluminum anodes "self-clean" in fresh water. Zinc
anodes form a coating that stops them working within a
few months. Performance Metals premium aluminum anodes come with
the required hardware for mounting. C1250A .1 1/4" SHAFT
