⚙️ Key Features

• To be used in fresh water
• Supplied as a kit
• 0.068 kg
• 29 applications across the D and MS families

🔌 Function

Provides the sacrificial metal that corrodes in place of the drive, in the alloy suited to fresh water's lower conductivity.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Anodes wasted, pitted or gone entirely
• Anodes untouched after a season, pointing to a broken bonding path
• Corrosion pitting appearing on the drive castings
• Anode fasteners seized, or the anode loose on its seat

🛠️ Service Notes

• Match the anode to the water the boat lies in - a fresh-water kit will not protect properly in salt, and salt-water anodes passivate in fresh
• Clean the seats to bright metal and leave the anodes unpainted
• Anode kit 853531 is the DP-marked kit in this range if yours is a DP drive
