TECNOSEAL TEN01117 Zinc Anode

Compatible Engines

Protecting the propulsion system from galvanic corrosion is fundamental to maintaining outboard motor performance, especially in saltwater environments. The TECNOSEAL TEN01117, made from high-quality zinc, acts as a sacrificial element that shields key metal components from rapid degradation. Its design effectively attracts corrosive currents, extending the lifespan of propellers, water pumps, and other components exposed to seawater.

As official source data does not list specific engine models for this part, verifying compatibility based on the manufacturer catalog number TEN01117 or the original OE number is crucial. Different propulsion units require anodes with specific shapes and parameters, so we recommend comparing dimensions carefully or contacting our customer support if unsure. Only verification by part number guarantees the part fits your equipment.

Installation and Maintenance

Regular replacement of the zinc anode is one of the most cost-effective ways to insure your engine. We recommend checking the anode condition before each sailing season and after any extended period in the water. Seawater is aggressive, so even slightly worn anodes cease to provide protection.

• Galvanic Protection – The zinc anode effectively neutralizes corrosive currents in seawater.
• Easy Installation – The part is simple to install and replace without specialized tools.
• High Quality – TECNOSEAL ensures durability and stable chemical parameters.
• Cost Savings – Replacing an anode is far cheaper than repairing a damaged pump or propeller.

Remember to replace the anode immediately when its diameter is reduced by about half compared to new. Do not wait until the zinc dissolves completely, as it then stops protecting other parts. Caring for this detail extends your outboard motor's life.
