Vetus Aluminium and Zinc Anodes |  |
|
Cathodic protection by means of anodes is a ”must” for the protection of all metal parts under water. Therefore, not only for steel boats, but also for wooden, fibreglass and aluminium hulls, anodes are required. The material of the VETUS zinc anodes is of the highest possible standard, the U.S. mil.-A-18001 J. specifications.
Anodes which do not meet these specifications have hardly any effect or
no effect at all.
VETUS aluminium anodes consist of an aluminium-indium-zinc alloy.
All VETUS anodes are streamlined and mounted either with specially made studs,
which can be welded to a steel hull, or special through-hull bolts for fibreglass and
wooden boats.
We supply these studs and bolts |

Zinc Anodes or Aluminium Anodes? For vessels, which mostly cruise on inland (fresh) waters, we recommend aluminium anodes, since aluminium has a greater difference of potential with other metals than zinc. This is very important, as fresh water provides a higher electrical resistance than salt water. For sailing on salt waters we recommend the use of zinc anodes. Although aluminium anodes would perform a perfect job at sea as well, they would be sacrificed much more quickly. We do not recommend the use of magnesium anodes, as the difference of potential with other metals is too great, which could cause damage to the hull paint, especially when sailing in brackish or salt waters. |

 | Vetus Zinc Anodes for Shaft Mounting These VETUS shaft anodes are provided with cast-in metal clamps, which ensure longer life of the anode, prevent early loss of material and give a firm grip onto the shaft.
For high speed vessels, we advise against the use of shaft anodes. They offer considerable resistance and, when partly sacrificed, will cause an undesirable unbalance of the propeller shaft. In this case, please use the VETUS propeller nut with integrated zinc anode. |
