Vetus RAD50Z Rudder Disc Zinc Anode Ø50 mm
The Vetus RAD50Z is a disc-type zinc anode designed for installation on marine rudders. Manufactured from high-quality zinc in accordance with U.S. MIL-A-18001K specifications, this anode provides reliable cathodic protection against galvanic corrosion in saltwater and brackish water environments.
Zinc anodes are recommended for vessels operating in salt or brackish water, where electrical resistance is low and effective corrosion protection is required. In freshwater environments, aluminium anodes are typically preferred due to their higher potential difference. The compact disc profile of the RAD50Z allows it to be mounted directly on rudder surfaces with minimal hydrodynamic impact.
