View / Add to CartWhat This Anode Kit is Used For
This Mercury aluminum anode kit helps protect compatible Mercury CMS and Racing outboards from galvanic corrosion in marine environments.
Anodes are sacrificial components designed to corrode before more critical aluminum and metal components of the outboard are damaged.
Replacing worn anodes during regular maintenance helps maintain proper corrosion protection and long-term outboard reliability.
