Maddox Anodes are advanced corrosion protection solutions designed to safeguard timber and fiberglass vessels from galvanic corrosion. Utilizing a patented composite alloy, these anodes offer superior performance compared to traditional zinc anodes.
Key Features:
-
Enhanced Protection: Maddox Anodes effectively shield bronze and stainless steel components on composite and wooden vessels by creating a more neutral environment in the water, thereby reducing the risk of galvanic corrosion.
Compatibility: These anodes are suitable for use on fiberglass and timber boats but are not recommended for aluminum hulls, fittings, or fixtures.
Environmental Considerations: Maddox Anodes are cadmium-free, making them an environmentally friendly choice for boat owners.
Maintenance of Coatings: By minimizing galvanic disbondment, Maddox Anodes help maintain the integrity of protective coatings such as paints and propeller applications.
Product Range:
Maddox Anodes are available in various sizes to accommodate different vessel requirements:
-
Transom Maddox Anode: Designed for transom mounting, this anode offers efficient protection for the stern area of the vessel.
Large Wedge Anode: Ideal for under-hull mounting, this single unit features a tapered front edge to reduce drag.
Small and Long Wedge Anodes: Available in small pairs or a single long wedge, these anodes are suitable for trim tabs or rudder mounts, as well as swim platforms and other areas requiring smaller anodes.
Button Anode: A round design tailored for bow thrusters and smaller trim tabs.
Installation and Maintenance:
For optimal performance, it is essential to ensure that the vessel's bonding system is in excellent condition, with no more than 1 ohm resistance between a bonded article and the anode. Regular visual inspections and comprehensive checks during haul-outs are recommended to maintain the effectiveness of the anodes.
By choosing Maddox Anodes, boat owners can benefit from advanced corrosion protection technology that enhances vessel longevity and performance.
