MME Aluminium Rectangular Hull & Rudder Anodes for Steel Hulls

MME Aluminium Rectangular Hull and Rudder Anodes for Steel Hulls – 305–457 mm

The MME Aluminium Rectangular Hull and Rudder Anodes are designed to provide sacrificial corrosion protection for steel-hulled boats. Manufactured from aluminium, these anodes help protect underwater metal components against corrosion in brackish and saltwater environments.

The range includes six models: MME13AB, MME15AB, MME26AB, MME45AB, MME47AB and MME51AB. All variants feature rectangular aluminium bodies and are specified for steel hull applications. The models differ in body dimensions and product identification.

Technical Specifications and Available Models

The MME aluminium anode range includes six rectangular models with different body dimensions. All dimensions are specified in millimetres and are presented as length × width × height.

Construction and Mounting

The MME anodes feature rectangular aluminium bodies with cast-in mounting strips. The range is intended for hull and rudder applications on steel vessels.

The following mounting strip lengths are specified in the product descriptions:

• MME13AB: Mounting strip length of 200 mm.
• MME15AB: Mounting strip length of 200 mm.

Complete mounting strip dimensions are not confirmed for the remaining models.

When selecting a replacement anode, the mounting arrangement should be checked against the existing installation in addition to the body dimensions.

Dimensions and Model Selection

The range includes six product variants. Body dimensions are specified as length × width × height.

• MME13AB: Rectangular aluminium anode measuring 305 × 68 × 38 mm, with a specified mounting strip length of 200 mm.
• MME15AB: Rectangular aluminium anode measuring 305 × 88 × 38 mm, with a specified mounting strip length of 200 mm.
• MME26AB: Rectangular aluminium anode measuring 450 × 102 × 40 mm.
• MME45AB: Rectangular aluminium anode measuring 457 × 102 × 64 mm.
• MME47AB: Rectangular aluminium anode measuring 457 × 102 × 64 mm.
• MME51AB: Rectangular aluminium anode measuring 430 × 102 × 64 mm.

The MME13AB and MME15AB share the same body length of 305 mm and height of 38 mm but differ in width: 68 mm and 88 mm respectively.

The MME26AB measures 450 × 102 × 40 mm, while the MME51AB measures 430 × 102 × 64 mm.

The MME45AB and MME47AB have identical stated body dimensions of 457 × 102 × 64 mm. These models have different product numbers and EAN codes and should be identified by their respective model designations when ordering.

When selecting an anode, compare the body dimensions, model designation and mounting arrangement with the existing installation.

Corrosion Protection and Water Compatibility

The aluminium anode acts as a sacrificial component, corroding preferentially to help protect other metal components of the vessel against corrosion.

The MME aluminium hull and rudder anodes are suitable for the following water environments:

• Brackish Water: Environments containing a mixture of freshwater and saltwater.
• Saltwater: Marine saltwater environments.

All six models are specified for use on steel hulls. Their different body dimensions provide options for selecting an anode according to the required installation size.
