Hollex Aluminium Weld-On Hull and Rudder Anode – Rectangular, FAL Series
The Hollex Aluminium Weld-On Anode is a rectangular sacrificial anode designed to protect metal components of boat hulls and rudders against corrosion. The aluminium anode corrodes preferentially, helping to protect other metal parts of the vessel.
Designed for welded installation, these anodes are suitable for brackish water environments where freshwater and saltwater mix. The range includes five FAL models with different body dimensions and welding strip lengths, allowing selection according to the required anode size.

Installation and Corrosion Protection
The anode is designed to be welded to the boat’s hull or rudder. It functions as a sacrificial component, corroding instead of other metal parts to help prevent corrosion damage.
Aluminium weld-on anodes are suitable for brackish water environments. Anode material selection depends on the type of water in which the vessel operates:
- Magnesium Anodes: Freshwater environments.
- Zinc Anodes: Saltwater environments.
- Aluminium Anodes: Brackish water environments.
