Shaft & Rudder Anode Fitting — Protecting Critical Components

What is Shaft & Rudder Anode Fitting?

KCC installs sacrificial anodes on propeller shafts, rudders, and stern gear to provide targeted cathodic protection to these critical components. Correct anode placement and sizing is essential to ensure adequate protection.

What's Included

Assessment of anode requirements for shafts, rudders, and stern gear
Removal of spent anodes
Installation of correctly sized and positioned replacement anodes
Confirmation of electrical continuity between anodes and protected components
Documentation of anode installation

Why This Matters

Propeller shafts, rudders, and stern gear are expensive to repair or replace — and are particularly vulnerable to corrosion if not adequately protected. Correct anode installation provides the targeted protection needed to extend the service life of these critical components.
