Talamex Magnesium Anode 45840001
Premium Sacrificial Protection for Fresh & Brackish Water
The Talamex 45840001 Magnesium Anode is a vital component for boat owners operating in freshwater and brackish environments. Unlike traditional zinc anodes which can become "passivated" and ineffective in low-conductivity water, this magnesium anode provides a higher negative electrochemical potential, ensuring your hull, propellers, and underwater metalwork are protected from the destructive effects of galvanic corrosion.
Key Features
- β Magnesium Core: Optimized for lakes and rivers.
- β Mounting Strips: Pre-fitted for easy screw or weld-on installation.
- β Sacrificial Design: Corrodes preferentially to protect hulls and drives.
- β High Potency: Lower contact resistance in freshwater.

Questions & Answers
Is this a genuine original part?
This is a premium Talamex part, manufactured by Lankhorst Taselaar to provide high-level sacrificial protection that meets or exceeds general marine specifications.
How do I know if it is compatible?
We recommend measuring your existing anode or checking your hull's current mounting holes. This anode is a universal fit with dimensions of 110x60x28mm and includes flexible metal strips for easy adjustment.
Can I use this anode in the sea (salt water)?
Magnesium anodes are specifically for freshwater or brackish water. In saltwater, they will react too aggressively and dissolve much faster than intended. For saltwater, use Zinc or Aluminium anodes.
