Vetus BOA025Z Zinc Plane Hull Anode 3.63 kg
The Vetus BOA025Z is a large-capacity plane hull anode developed for reliable cathodic protection of extensive underwater metal surfaces on vessels operating in saltwater and brackish environments. Zinc anodes are recommended for these conditions due to their stable electrochemical behavior and predictable consumption rate. This model is manufactured from high-purity zinc in accordance with MIL-A-18001K specifications, ensuring consistent and long-lasting corrosion protection.
Zinc anodes provide durable defense against galvanic corrosion on hull plating, keels, shafts, and other submerged metal components. While aluminium anodes are more efficient in freshwater, zinc remains the preferred solution for marine and mixed-water operation. The BOA025Z features an ultra-low-profile plane design combined with bolt-on mounting, enabling secure installation over large surface areas and straightforward replacement during scheduled maintenance.
