Frequently Asked Questions
What is the material of the Tecnoseal Mercury Power Aluminum Trim Anode?
The Tecnoseal Mercury Power Aluminum Trim Anode is constructed from aluminum.
Which Mercury outboard models is this trim anode designed for?
This trim anode is specifically designed for Mercury Verado 350 Pro outboard engines.
What is the purpose of a trim anode on a Mercury Verado outboard?
The trim anode on a Mercury Verado outboard serves as a sacrificial component that corrodes instead of the more critical metal parts of the trim system, thus preventing galvanic corrosion and extending the life of those components.
How often should I replace my trim anode?
Trim anodes should be inspected regularly, typically at the start of each boating season or after extended periods in saltwater. Replacement is recommended when the anode has been reduced by approximately 50% of its original size or shows significant pitting and corrosion.
Is this anode made of aluminum or zinc?
This specific Tecnoseal anode is made of aluminum, which is suitable for freshwater and brackish water environments, and also for saltwater when paired with aluminum lower units, as is common with many Mercury outboards.
