Osculati 43.424.14 – Mercury Verado Magnesium Anode 880653
The Osculati 43.424.14 is a premium-grade magnesium anode engineered to replace Mercury OEM part 880653 on Verado series outboards. It is specially formulated for freshwater use, where magnesium's high electrochemical activity provides unmatched corrosion protection.
This anode protects essential submerged components, such as the gearcase, lower unit, and trim hardware, from galvanic degradation caused by stray currents and dissimilar metals. Magnesium's effectiveness in low-conductivity water makes it the only recommended material for freshwater-only vessels.
Key Features:
- OEM equivalent: Mercury 880653
- Material: High-purity magnesium
- Designed for freshwater use only
- Maximum protection in low-conductivity environments
- Direct bolt-on fit with pre-drilled holes
- Protects lower unit, trim tab, and gearcase elements
Technical Specifications:
Parameter Value Article Number Osculati 43.424.14 OEM Reference Mercury 880653 Material Magnesium Engine Compatibility Mercury Verado Series Recommended Environment Freshwater only
Applications:
- Mercury Verado outboard engines
- Freshwater boating (lakes, rivers, reservoirs)
- Corrosion protection for submerged metal structures
The Osculati 43.424.14 magnesium anode is the ideal choice for Mercury Verado owners operating in freshwater. With superior reactivity and full OEM compatibility, it provides long-lasting protection where zinc and aluminium are ineffective.
