Product Details

The Caldwell Casting/Performance Metals 00357A is a replacement aluminum bracket anode designed for high-horsepower Yamaha four-stroke outboard motors. This anode is used on Yamaha outboard 4-stroke models 300-425 HP and provides essential galvanic corrosion protection for your engine's bracket and mounting hardware.

Key Features:

  • Performance Metals Navalloy® aluminum anodes are manufactured to the military specification MIL-DTL 24779 and are suitable for use in all water types—salt, brackish, or fresh
  • Dimensions: 8 inches long by 1-3/4 inches wide
  • Replaces Yamaha OEM part number 6AW-45251-00
  • Kit includes mounting hardware and installation instructions
  • Aluminum construction provides superior protection in all water conditions

As a sacrificial anode, this component is designed to corrode preferentially, protecting more expensive engine components from galvanic corrosion. Regular inspection and replacement of anodes is essential preventive maintenance for extending the life of your Yamaha outboard motor. The aluminum alloy composition makes this anode ideal for boats operating in saltwater, brackish water, or freshwater environments.

When I placed my order the conformation page didn't have detailed information. I contacted custom service and they sent me a detailed invoice, they called shipping to confirm details, then sent me email to confirm. Product arrived on time as ordered.

Wait time was a bit longer than expected but things happen.
