Did you know that when two different types of metals come into contact with water, they can act like batteries? It’s true!
In this wet environment, a fascinating phenomenon occurs—current starts to flow between these metals.
One, known as the ‘anode,’ slowly releases its metal ions into the water.
We call this process ‘galvanic corrosion,’ and it’s something every ship or vessel owner should know.
Galvanic corrosion can be a severe concern for metal in wet environments, potentially leading to costly damage.
The good news: there’s a solution.
You can protect your valuable metal parts using sacrificial anodes made of a less noble and much cheaper metal.
These sacrificial anodes take the corrosion hit, keeping your ship or vessel safe and saving you from expensive repairs.
Save Big on Maintenance Costs!
Replacing anodes is far more cost-effective than repairing or replacing a corroded hull.
