Aluminum Sacrificial Anodes
FOR HULLS (BOLTED AND WELDED)

Aluminum hull anodes from the Deepwater MPE foundry are cast in low-iron, high-purity aluminum alloys. Please contact us for advice on optimizing an anode to suit your specific requirements. Aluminum hull-bolted and hull-welded anodes are available in the following "standard" dimensions:
