Vetus BOA004A Bolt-On Aluminium Hull Anode Rectangular 0.87 kg
The Vetus BOA004A is a bolt-on aluminium hull anode engineered for effective cathodic protection of underwater metal components in freshwater, brackish water, and saltwater environments. Manufactured from aluminium alloy in accordance with MIL-A-24779 (SH) standards, this anode offers high electrochemical efficiency and reliable corrosion prevention for hulls, rudders, steering systems, and other submerged metal parts.
Aluminium anodes are a lightweight and environmentally considerate alternative to zinc and provide superior performance in brackish water and areas with lower salt concentrations. The BOA004A combines increased mass with a streamlined rectangular form to deliver extended service life and stable mounting. Bolt-on installation allows straightforward replacement once the anode material has been consumed.
