Tecnoseal WKC58 Walter Keel Cooler Zinc Bar Anode 159x22x12 mm
The Tecnoseal WKC58 is a zinc sacrificial bar anode designed for compatible Walter marine keel cooling systems. It helps protect metallic components of the keel cooler against galvanic corrosion by acting as a replaceable sacrificial element.
The anode features an elongated rectangular zinc body with slightly tapered ends. Its overall dimensions are 159 mm (6.26 in) in length, 22 mm (0.87 in) in width and 12 mm (0.47 in) in height, making it suitable for installations requiring this specific anode profile.
Weighing 0.26 kg (0.57 lbs), the Tecnoseal WKC58 provides sacrificial zinc material for corrosion protection in compatible marine keel cooling equipment. It is a replacement anode component rather than a complete keel cooler assembly.

Walter Keel Cooler Application
The Tecnoseal WKC58 is intended for Walter keel cooling systems requiring a rectangular sacrificial zinc anode measuring 159 × 22 × 12 mm.
The zinc body provides sacrificial corrosion protection for compatible metallic components exposed to the surrounding water. As the zinc gradually corrodes during service, it helps reduce galvanic corrosion of the protected equipment.
Dimensions and Replacement
The WKC58 measures 159 mm in overall length, with a 22 mm width and 12 mm height. Its elongated profile features slightly tapered ends.
Before ordering a replacement, compare the dimensions and shape of the existing anode with the WKC58 technical specifications. The mounting arrangement should also be confirmed against the original keel cooler installation.
Inspection and Maintenance
As a sacrificial anode, the WKC58 gradually loses material during operation. Periodic inspection is recommended to determine when replacement is necessary.
Replacement requirements depend on operating conditions and the amount of zinc remaining. A correctly selected anode is an important part of maintaining corrosion protection for compatible keel cooling systems.
Supply: One Tecnoseal WKC58 zinc sacrificial bar anode.
