Anode with gasket 21.3x590 22170

Corrosion protection in water systems

Magnesium anode with gasket is a key element protecting against corrosion in domestic hot water systems and tanks. Its operation is based on the principle of cathodic protection – the anode “sacrifices” itself, corroding instead of the tank metal, extending its lifespan. Regular anode replacement, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, is essential to ensure continuous protection. This model, with dimensions of 21.3 x 590 mm and a 3/4 inch thread, is designed for wide use in various types of heaters and tanks.

Construction and application

The anode is made of magnesium, a metal characterized by high electrochemical activity. It has an external thread with a gasket, which facilitates installation and ensures a tight connection. A length of 590 mm and a diameter of 21.3 mm make it compatible with most standard tanks available on the market. The rod construction of the anode provides a large active surface, and thus effective cathodic protection. The net weight of the product is 0.44 kg.

Why choose a magnesium anode?

• Extended tank life: The anode protects the steel tank from corrosion, preventing holes and leaks.
• Protection against costly repairs: Regular anode replacement is a small cost compared to replacing the entire tank.
• Compliance with service recommendations: Replacing the anode every 18 months ensures optimal protection and compliance with the manufacturer's warranty conditions.
• Easy installation: The external thread with a gasket facilitates quick and trouble-free installation – for both professionals and end users.
• Versatility: Fits many types of water heaters and DHW tanks available on the market.
• Effective cathodic protection: Magnesium effectively corrodes instead of steel, protecting the installation from damage caused by corrosion.
