QT-146 146mm (5-3/4″) Shaft Anode

The QT-146 146mm (5-3/4″) Shaft Anode is a heavy-duty sacrificial anode designed to provide maximum protection against galvanic corrosion for propeller shafts in saltwater and brackish water environments. Crafted with precision and durability, this anode is built to protect your vessel’s propulsion system, ensuring optimal performance and long-term reliability.

Marine vessels operate in highly corrosive conditions where metal components such as shafts, propellers, and struts are continuously exposed to electrochemical reactions. Left unprotected, these parts suffer from galvanic corrosion, which leads to expensive damage, reduced efficiency, and unexpected downtime. The QT-146 shaft anode works as a sacrificial barrier, corroding first to preserve your valuable shaft and surrounding hardware.

Made from premium-grade zinc, the QT-146 offers dependable performance in saltwater applications, where zinc remains the trusted standard for corrosion control. With a 146mm (5-3/4″) internal bore, this anode is specifically engineered to fit shafts of that size securely. Its precision-machined design ensures a snug, vibration-resistant fit, preventing slippage while maintaining consistent protective coverage.

Installation is quick and straightforward, thanks to its split design and secure clamping bolts that guarantee tight contact with the shaft surface. Once installed, the QT-146 immediately begins protecting your vessel’s propulsion system from harmful electrolysis, helping extend the service life of vital underwater components.

The QT-146 Shaft Anode is ideally suited for medium to large marine vessels, including yachts, commercial boats, fishing trawlers, and other craft that demand reliable protection. With regular maintenance and timely replacement, this anode provides an affordable and effective way to safeguard your vessel against costly repairs and downtime.
