Tecnoseal 01044 Flex-O-Fold Zinc Propeller Nut Anode Ø85 mm
The Tecnoseal 01044 is a zinc sacrificial propeller nut anode designed for compatible Flex-O-Fold folding propeller assemblies. It is a replaceable corrosion protection component that helps protect electrically connected underwater metallic propeller parts against galvanic corrosion.
The anode features a rounded conical body with a central fastening opening and four mounting holes positioned around the circular base. Its outside diameter is 85 mm (3.35 in), and its overall height is 48 mm (1.89 in). The manufacturer's technical drawing also specifies a mounting dimension (i) of 58 mm (2.28 in). Manufactured from zinc, the anode weighs 1.04 kg (2.29 lbs).
Technical Specifications
Parameter Specification Manufacturer Tecnoseal Product Code 01044 Compatible Propeller Flex-O-Fold Product Type Sacrificial propeller nut anode Material Zinc Body Design Rounded conical body with four mounting holes Outside Diameter (Ø) 85 mm (3.35 in) Overall Height (h) 48 mm (1.89 in) Mounting Dimension (i) 58 mm (2.28 in) Weight 1.04 kg (2.29 lbs) EAN 8052530701713
Design and Mounting Configuration
The Tecnoseal 01044 has a rounded conical external profile with a circular mounting base. The underside incorporates four mounting holes surrounding a central opening, while the top of the anode includes a central fastening point.
The manufacturer's technical drawing identifies an outside diameter of 85 mm, an overall height of 48 mm and a mounting dimension (i) of 58 mm. These dimensions, together with the four-hole fastening arrangement, define the main characteristics for identifying the correct replacement.
Before ordering, compare the shape, overall dimensions and mounting hole arrangement with the existing Flex-O-Fold anode. The specific propeller model should also be checked to confirm compatibility.
Corrosion Protection and Maintenance
Manufactured from zinc, the Tecnoseal 01044 acts as a sacrificial component in the propeller's corrosion protection system. Its zinc material is designed to corrode preferentially, helping protect electrically connected underwater metallic propeller components against galvanic corrosion.
Inspect the anode periodically and replace it when significantly depleted. During installation, ensure suitable electrical contact with the metallic component requiring protection and secure the anode using the appropriate mounting arrangement.
