Camp Zinc

<h3>About Camp Zinc (Camp Company)</h3><p><strong>Camp Zinc</strong>, the consumer-facing brand of Camp Company, is a leading manufacturer of marine anodes. Their zinc and aluminum sacrificial anodes are manufactured in the US to ensure the highest quality of corrosion protection. For boaters, that American-made heritage matters — it means consistent alloy quality, tighter tolerances, and confidence that every anode performs as advertised when your boat hits the water.</p><h3>What Are Sacrificial Anodes and Why Do They Matter?</h3><p>Galvanic corrosion is one of the most damaging and insidious threats to any vessel. Cathodic protection is one of the most effective methods of preventing galvanic corrosion on underwater metal constructions and in heat exchangers, and sacrificial anodes are the main components of this kind of protection — though they have to be replaced regularly for best effect. In simple terms, a sacrificial anode is a less-noble metal (zinc or aluminum) that corrodes in place of your expensive underwater hardware, sparing your propeller shafts, rudders, and drive components from damage.</p><h3>A Full Range of Marine Anode Solutions</h3><p>Camp Company anodes are manufactured for use on recreational, commercial, and military vessels, placed on hulls, propeller shafts, rudders, trim tabs, outboard engines, stern drives, and in the cooling system of most inboard engines to protect metal parts from galvanic corrosion. That breadth of coverage is a hallmark of the brand — whether you run a small outboard skiff or a large commercial workboat, Camp Zinc has a purpose-built anode solution.</p><p>At the heart of Camp Zinc&apos;s lineup are their <a href="/7286-camp-zinc-anode-kits-201633">Anode Kits</a>, which bundle together all the anodes needed to fully protect a specific engine or drive system. Rather than sourcing individual pieces, boaters can grab a kit and know their entire drivetrain is covered. Camp also offers a second, complementary line of <a href="/7286-camp-zinc-anode-kits-200102">Anode Kits</a> tailored to a different range of outboard and sterndrive applications, making it easy to find the right match for your specific make and model.</p><p>For boaters who need ancillary hardware to complete their anode installations, Camp Zinc also supplies <a href="/7286-camp-zinc-tie-strap-and-clip-10142">Tie Straps and Clips</a> — the small but essential fastening components that secure anodes and associated wiring properly to the vessel.</p><h3>MIL-SPEC Standards You Can Trust</h3><p>Camp Company is one of the leading American enterprises specializing in manufacturing aluminum and zinc marine anodes, and the company makes its products compliant with high standards and special military specifications peculiar to this kind of goods. Marine anodes conform to MIL-SPEC standards, including Mil-A-18001 for zinc anodes. These standards ensure that every anode has the proper electrochemical potential to protect your boat&apos;s metal components — no guesswork, no shortcuts.</p><p>Whether you&apos;re maintaining a Yamaha outboard, a Volvo Penta sterndrive, a Mercury drive, or a commercial inboard, Camp Zinc delivers the corrosion protection professionals and passionate boaters alike have depended on for years.</p>

Product Details

The Camp Zinc ZHC 17 is a rectangular hull plate zinc anode designed to provide effective corrosion protection for boats and marine vessels. This sacrificial anode measures 12 inches by 6 inches with a 1-inch thickness, offering substantial zinc mass for extended protection in saltwater and brackish water environments.

Key Features:

  • Rectangular hull plate design for flat mounting surfaces
  • Dimensions: 12" x 6" x 1" provides long-lasting protection
  • High-purity zinc alloy composition for optimal galvanic properties
  • Ideal for protecting hulls, rudders, trim tabs, and underwater metal components
  • Prevents costly corrosion damage to through-hulls, shafts, and propellers

Hull plate anodes like the ZHC 17 are essential components of a comprehensive cathodic protection system, sacrificing themselves to prevent electrolysis and galvanic corrosion of more expensive metal parts. Regular inspection and replacement when 50% depleted ensures continuous protection of your vessel's underwater metals.

I just received my Knn filter. Shipment was on time. The box look beat up and deformed with a lot of tapes but the filter seems to be in good condition.

Excellent

Great product at a low price!

Very easy and fast checkout

The whole process was some and quick. They also had the lowest prices available. Will be using them more often for sure!!

I shopped around a little first and Autoplicity had the best price on a wideband sensor and gauge. When I needed a fuel pressure regulator too, I found their price was the best so I ordered both from them. Great prices and fast deliver!

Awesome company! I can't believe the price for the rack I bought. The lowest anywhere!! On top of the killer price, the shipping speed was outstanding. I would definitely buy from these guys again!
