Volvo Penta DP-SM Outdrive Anodes and Parts

Volvo Penta Zinc Anodes are installed from the factory on all Volvo Penta drives, Saildrives and transom shields. Never fit a non genuine anode to your Saildrive, transom shield or drive leg. Volvo Penta anodes and made to exact specifications to protect the underwater gear from corrosion.

Zinc anodes although more expensive, are designed solely for salt water use. Magnesium anodes are designed for use in fresh water and alumunium for brackish water. Anodes should be inspected as often as possible and especially if the boat is in a marine environment with lots of boats on shore power around. If the anode is worn by more than a third, it will need to be changed, due to its surface area being reduced.

Always use genuine Volvo Penta anodes to ensure maximum protection on sterndrives, Saildrives and propellers. Non OEM anodes never meet or exceed genuine Volvo Penta replacement anodes and some found on auction sites are fakes.
