Product Details

The Performance Metals 00128A is a corrosion-protection button anode designed for Yamaha and Honda outboard motors. This sacrificial anode protects critical engine components from galvanic corrosion by attracting corrosive elements away from the motor's metal surfaces.

Key Features:

  • Manufactured from Navalloy® aluminum to military specification MIL-DTL 24779
  • Suitable for all water types: salt, brackish, and fresh water
  • Direct replacement for Yamaha part number 688-45251-01
  • Direct replacement for Honda part number 12155-ZV4-A00
  • Precision cast and assembled in Maryland, USA

Application:

  • Yamaha outboards: 40hp (1985-1987), 50hp (1984-1987), 70-90hp (1984-1987)
  • Honda outboards: 40-90hp models

Regular inspection and replacement of sacrificial anodes is essential for preventing costly corrosion damage to your outboard motor. Replace when anode is 50% depleted to maintain optimal protection.

I ordered a tire from thmotorsports that the manufacturer had discontinued two years earlier and which I could not find anywhere else, without checking customer reviews first, something I never do. Had I checked reviews first I would never have placed the order as the reviews I read after placing my order were uniformly awful. But rather than call and cancel the order, which was my first impulse, I resisted the urge to do so and waited. A day later, the shipping update said my tire had shipped, so I waited. Another day later, the shipping update said my tire would arrive a day later by the end of the day so I waited. On the appointed day, the tire, exactly the tire I had ordered and which was unavailable anywhere else, arrived at the end of the day, brand new, in perfect condition and I was utterly amazed. Thank you, thmotorsports, I am so glad I did not look at your reviews before placing my order.
