Aluminum Alloy Anode

Description

Protect your Ice Eater from Electrolysis

Aluminum Alloy Anodes are a sacrificial metal with one purpose; to prevent and deter corrosion of underwater metals in the Ice Eater and other off-brand de-icers.
Inspect the Aluminum Anode periodically (at least every 2-3 months) for deterioration and/or corrosion.
You must replace the Aluminum Anodes when it has been reduced to half of the original size (original size – 1.5″ Diamater x 1.25″ Tall).
Failure to operate the Ice Eater with the anode could result in deterioration and contamination of the Ice Eater metals and may void your warranty.

Aluminum is Better than Zinc

• Aluminum Anodes are the best choice of sacrificial anodes for all water types.
• Proven to last longer than Zinc Anodes due to increased capacity.
• Zinc Anodes, when used in fresh or brackish water, are prone to developing a calcareous coating. This layer of calcium carbonate appears whitish and essentially puts a zinc anode to sleep. Many watermen mistakenly perceive these especially “long-lived” zinc anodes to be effective.
• Unlike Zinc Anodes, Aluminum Anodes have zero cadmium in the alloy, making Aluminum Anodes environmentally friendly and suitable for all uses.
• Aluminum Alloy Anodes are manufactured to meet or exceed US Military Specification MIL-A-24779(SH)
