MG Duff CM984513Z Zinc Front Gear Case Horseshoe Anode

MG Duff CM984513Z Zinc Front Gear Case Horseshoe Anode

The MG Duff CM984513Z is a zinc sacrificial horseshoe anode designed for compatible marine front gear case applications. It provides a replaceable sacrificial component to help protect electrically connected underwater metallic parts against galvanic corrosion.

The CM984513Z features a horseshoe-shaped anode configuration intended for the corresponding front gearcase mounting position. This construction is an important identification feature when selecting a replacement, as the anode must match the existing component's shape and mounting arrangement.

Manufactured from zinc, the anode is designed to corrode preferentially when correctly installed with suitable electrical continuity, helping reduce galvanic corrosion of the metallic components requiring protection.

The product is supplied individually and is identified by MG Duff part number CM984513Z and EAN 0628309101534.

Technical Specifications

Front Gear Case Application

The MG Duff CM984513Z is identified for marine propulsion systems requiring a zinc horseshoe anode at the front gear case.

The supplied product information does not specify compatible engine manufacturers, individual engine models, horsepower ratings, production years or original equipment part numbers.

Before ordering, confirm the required anode against the existing gearcase component and the applicable propulsion equipment parts documentation.

Horseshoe Anode Construction

The CM984513Z is identified by its horseshoe-style zinc sacrificial body and front gearcase application.

The supplied technical information confirms the material, anode configuration and installation application. Overall dimensions, weight, fixing-hole spacing and mounting hardware specifications have not been provided.

Compare the original anode's physical shape, dimensions and mounting arrangement with the replacement component before installation.

Zinc Sacrificial Corrosion Protection

Zinc is commonly used as a sacrificial anode material for galvanic corrosion protection in saltwater marine environments.

When correctly installed with suitable electrical continuity to the metallic components requiring protection, the zinc material corrodes preferentially, helping reduce galvanic corrosion of electrically connected underwater gearcase parts.

The suitability of zinc should be confirmed according to the vessel's operating water conditions and the propulsion equipment manufacturer's recommendations.

Inspection and Replacement

Inspect the front gearcase horseshoe anode periodically during routine marine propulsion maintenance. Replace it when the sacrificial zinc material becomes significantly depleted, damaged or no longer securely attached.

Before fitting a replacement, verify the original mounting position, inspect the electrical contact surfaces and confirm that the new anode matches the required horseshoe configuration.
