What Are Anodes On A Boat Used For?What Are Anodes On A Boat Used For?

Aluminum Hull Anodes

Our excellent range of aluminium anodes provide superior protection to the hull when it is in salt and brackish water. Anodes sacrifice themselves, protecting underwater metals - hence the term 'sacrificial anodes'. We typically recommend replacing boat anodes once they are half eroded, which is typically around once a year, however the speed in which anodes dissolve depends on a range of factors including usage, location (of your boat), water temperature and the quality of the anode itself.
