Tecnoseal Yamaha 200-300 HP Aluminum Bar Anode

The Tecnoseal Aluminum Yamaha Bar Anode fits the engine bracket on Yamaha 200 to 300 hp outboards. It's sometimes called a sacrificial anode because it corrodes before other metal parts. It's 7.91 inches long and weighs 0.57 lb.

Aluminum anodes protect in salt, brackish and fresh water, and they deliver more protection per pound than zinc. Tecnoseal rates this one for saltwater or brackish use. It's the lighter alternative to the zinc version. It's 1.85 inches wide and 0.67 inch tall, with mounting holes 7.09 inches apart and 0.25 x 0.43 inch slots.

Replace anodes when they're about half consumed, and never paint them, because paint stops them from working. Stick with one anode metal on a given drive or hull instead of mixing zinc and aluminum. Match the alloy and mounting dimensions to the existing anode before replacement, because both details affect protection and fit. Browse more marine anodes.
