The Tecnoseal R4MG Rudder Anode is a magnesium sacrificial anode designed for marine applications. This component is intended for IT hardware resellers serving clients with marine infrastructure or equipment requiring corrosion protection. It functions by corroding preferentially to protect more critical metal components on a rudder, mitigating galvanic corrosion. Each anode measures 5 inches in outer diameter and 0.60 inches in height, weighing 0.78 lbs. The design includes a captive stainless steel hex nut and a socket cap screw, which simplifies underwater installation. This product is suitable for businesses that maintain or service vessels and require reliable, easily installable corrosion prevention solutions for rudder assemblies.
The R4MG Rudder Anode is constructed from magnesium, which is a sacrificial material designed to protect other metals from corrosion in specific environments.
This rudder anode has an outer diameter of 5 inches, a height of 0.60 inches, and weighs 0.78 lbs.
Each anode includes a stainless steel hex nut and a socket cap screw. The hex nut is captive, which is beneficial for underwater installations.
A rudder anode acts as a sacrificial component, corroding itself to protect the rudder and other metallic parts from galvanic corrosion, thereby extending the lifespan of the protected equipment.
