Technical Specifications and Available Models

The MME zinc anode range includes seven models with different body dimensions and mounting strip specifications. All dimensions are specified in millimetres.

Construction and Mounting

Each MME anode features a teardrop-shaped zinc body with an extended mounting strip. The strip provides the mounting arrangement for welded installation on the hull or rudder.

Mounting strip dimensions vary according to the selected model:

• MME0Z: 200 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME1Z: 260 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME2Z: 300 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME3Z: 300 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME20ZB: 230 × 40 × 5 mm mounting strip.
• MME10Z: 405 mm mounting strip length. Width and thickness are not specified.
• MME10ZB: 230 mm mounting strip length. Width and thickness are not specified.

The MME0Z, MME1Z, MME2Z and MME3Z models have mounting strips with a width of 20 mm and a thickness of 3 mm. The MME20ZB features a wider strip measuring 40 mm in width and 5 mm in thickness.

When selecting an anode, compare the mounting strip dimensions and body size with the existing installation requirements.

Dimensions and Model Selection

The range includes seven models with different body dimensions. Dimensions are specified as length × width × height.

• MME0Z (1791): Zinc anode measuring 120 × 40 × 25 mm, with a 200 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME1Z (1792): Zinc anode measuring 180 × 60 × 32 mm, with a 260 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME2Z (1793): Zinc anode measuring 220 × 75 × 38 mm, with a 300 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME3Z (1799): Zinc anode measuring 200 × 95 × 30 mm, with a 300 × 20 × 3 mm mounting strip.
• MME20ZB: Zinc anode measuring 160 × 80 × 40 mm, with a 230 × 40 × 5 mm mounting strip.
• MME10Z (1754): Zinc anode measuring 275 × 175 × 51 mm, with a 405 mm mounting strip length.
• MME10ZB: Zinc anode measuring 200 × 70 × 30 mm, with a 230 mm mounting strip length.

The MME3Z and MME10ZB share the same body length of 200 mm and height of 30 mm but differ in width and mounting strip length. The MME3Z measures 95 mm in width and has a 300 mm mounting strip, while the MME10ZB measures 70 mm in width and has a 230 mm mounting strip.

The MME10Z has the largest body in this range, measuring 275 × 175 × 51 mm, with a mounting strip length of 405 mm.

When selecting a replacement anode, check the body dimensions and mounting strip specifications against the required installation dimensions.

Application and Corrosion Protection

The MME zinc anodes are designed for hull and rudder applications in saltwater environments. The zinc body functions as a sacrificial component, corroding preferentially to help protect other metal components of the vessel against galvanic corrosion.

The range is available in different body sizes and mounting strip configurations to accommodate marine hull and rudder installations.
