PROMT PARTS DISCUSS ANODES FOR YOUR MARINE ENGINE

Some anodes on your marine engine are easy to spot and replace and can be done at home. However, many anodes are hidden within the guts of the engine and need to be replaced by a professional technician. Anodes are inexpensive compared to the damage that can be caused to vital mechanical parts, if not replaced. Anodes are sacrificial metals made from either Zinc, Aluminium or Magnesium that corrode to protect the expensive mechanical parts of your engine. It's is very important to install the correct anode for your engine, depending on where you go boating, and that the anodes make a good connection for cathodic protection.
