MME Zinc Alloy Rod Sacrificial Anodes – Ø20–150 mm, 500–600 mm Length
The MME ZR Zinc Alloy Rod Anodes are cylindrical sacrificial anodes designed to provide cathodic corrosion protection for metal components in marine and industrial applications. Manufactured from zinc alloy, these anodes are available in different diameters and lengths to accommodate specific dimensional requirements.
The range includes 13 variants with diameters from 20 to 150 mm. All diameter options are available in a nominal length of 500 mm, while the Ø20 mm version is also available in a length of 600 mm. Nominal weights range from 1.12 to 63.09 kg, depending on the selected model.
The zinc alloy specifications are in accordance with U.S. MIL Spec. A-18001K. The alloy has a nominal electrochemical capacity of 780 Ah/kg and a nominal solution potential of -1050 mV versus an Ag/AgCl reference cell in seawater.

Construction and Dimensions
The MME ZR anodes are manufactured from zinc alloy and feature a solid cylindrical rod configuration. The manufacturer specifies two dimensional parameters: rod diameter (D) and overall length.
- Cross-Section: Circular.
- Body Shape: Cylindrical rod.
- Material: Zinc alloy.
- Minimum Diameter: 20 mm.
- Maximum Diameter: 150 mm.
- Standard Length: 500 mm.
- Additional Length: 600 mm for the Ø20 mm version.
The nominal weight depends on the diameter and length of the selected rod. The Ø20 × 500 mm model weighs 1.12 kg, while the Ø20 × 600 mm version weighs 1.35 kg.
The Ø150 × 500 mm model has the highest nominal weight in the range at 63.09 kg.

When selecting a rod anode, compare the required diameter, length and nominal weight with the specifications of the intended cathodic protection arrangement.
Application and Cathodic Protection
The MME ZR zinc alloy rods are sacrificial anodes intended for cathodic corrosion protection. The zinc alloy functions as a sacrificial material, corroding preferentially to help protect electrically connected metal components.
The range provides different diameters and weights for applications requiring cylindrical zinc alloy anodes. The appropriate configuration should be selected according to the dimensional requirements of the intended installation.
Technical Notes
- All dimensions and weights are nominal.
- Dimensions are specified in millimetres.
- Technical data is subject to change without prior notice.
- Other specifications are available on request from the manufacturer.
