Marine Protection Systems Maddox Composite Alloy Anode
The MPS Maddox anodes effectively protect bronze and stainless steel parts on fibreglass and wooden vessels by creating a more neutral environment in the water around the metal to be protected.
Maddox is available in 3 sizes. The patented composite alloy is closer than zinc in mV potential to the submerged metals found on most boats making it less aggressive on coatings and parts than the zinc equivalent. Note: always fit the Maddox anodes with the star washers provided for correct bonding.
This state-of-the-art anode provides effortless self-calibration of protection levels according to ABYC standards. Intended for wood and fiberglass boats the 1.6kg Maddox anode provides the perfect amount of protection for single prop craft up to 45'. For twin props, the 2.5kg anode works best and the 4.2kg for those over 45'.
Often, boaters are unaware of the problems associated through overprotection caused by excessive use of zinc anodes. With a specially designed aluminium alloy and shape, the Maddox anode effectively reduces galvanic corrosion without overprotecting.
For better fuel economy, the Maddox reduces the amount of contaminates growing on propellers. It also decreases the build-up of chloride in heat exchangers and intercoolers for better engine performance.
