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. C2500A .2 1/2" SHAFT Performance Metals Alum.Streamlined Collar 2 1/2"Shaft
