B & S Anodes Yamaha Outboard Skeg Anode Zinc

B & S Anodes Yamaha outboard skeg anodes are zinc sacrificial anodes. They protect the metal parts of your outboard's lower unit from galvanic corrosion. Zinc is more active than the other metals on the motor, so it corrodes first. That protects the more valuable metal components. This product line is also called a skeg zinc, trim tab anode or sacrificial zinc.

Key Features:

• Zinc construction: A traditional sacrificial anode material, well suited to saltwater use.
• Corrosion protection: Helps protect the lower unit, propeller and nearby underwater metal parts from galvanic corrosion.
• Replacement design: Made as a replacement for the skeg or trim tab anode on Yamaha outboards.
• U.S.-made: B & S Marine Anodes focuses on manufacturing zinc anodes.

Inspect your anodes regularly and replace them when they are about half worn. Check propeller clearance after installing a new anode. Keeping a fresh anode in place is a low-cost way to protect your outboard and extend its service life.
