Straight Aluminium Hull Anode With Single Strap
The ship is continuously in contact with water and moisture-laden winds which makes it highly susceptible to corrosion. Corrosion is one of the greatest enemies of the ship main body and its machinery —— from the outer body (mainly hull) to the smallest equipment used in operations.
Characterized by lightweight and high amperage output, this straight shaped aluminium hull anode will provide excellent protection for the hull on oceangoing vessels. The cast-in galvanized steel core allows for direct welding to the protected steel structure ensuring a reliable connection.

Quality Substrate Material
Manufactured with raw materials of the highest quality, our aluminum hull anode is designed to meet the standard GS EP COR 201. The life of our anodes is much longer than others.
| Element | GS EP COR 201 (Al – Zn – In) |
| Zinc (Zn) | 4.75 – 5.75% |
| Indium (In) | 0.015 – 0.02% |
| Cadmium (Cd) | 0.002% Max. |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.06 – 0.12% |
| Iron (Fe) | 0.12% Max. |
| Copper (Cu) | 0.003% Max. |
| Others Total | 0.1% Max. |
| Aluminum (Al) | Remainder |
Low Driving Voltage
This aluminium hul anode provides a stable performance in salt and brackish/estuarine waters as its operating potential is kept between -1.05 to -1.10 volts relative to saturated calomel electrode(SCE).
| Operating Potential (-V) | 1.05 – 1.1 |
| Current Capacity | 1135 A.h/lbs (2500 A.h/kg) |
| Consumption Rate | 7.6 lbs/A·y |
| Current Efficiency | 90% Min. |
| Solubility | Solute Uniformly |
Much Lighter in Weight
The aluminium hull anode is less dense than zinc, making it lighter and easier for handling when fitting.
Strict Quality Control
By conforming to ISO 9001:2015 standards, our aluminium hull anode is manufactured, inspected, and tested in accordance with stringent procedures to ensure high quality.
Customized Configurations
A range of standard anode sizes are illustrated below. Custom-made shapes, weights, and core configurations are available upon request.
