QT-167 167mm (6-5/8″) Shaft Anode

The QT-167 167mm (6-5/8″) Shaft Anode is an essential piece of marine hardware designed to safeguard your vessel’s propulsion system from the damaging effects of galvanic corrosion. Built with precision and durability in mind, this shaft anode is specifically engineered for propeller shafts with a 167mm (6-5/8″) diameter, making it suitable for a wide range of medium to large marine vessels.

When your boat operates in saltwater or brackish environments, electrical currents naturally seek to attack the metallic components of your vessel, particularly the propeller shaft. Without adequate protection, these currents can cause severe corrosion, leading to premature wear, costly repairs, and reduced vessel performance. The QT-167 Shaft Anode acts as a sacrificial metal, corroding in place of your shaft, thereby extending the service life of critical underwater components.

Manufactured from high-grade zinc, the QT-167 offers optimal electrochemical protection in marine environments. Zinc remains the industry standard for saltwater applications due to its reliability and effectiveness as a sacrificial anode material. With its precision-machined bore and secure clamping design, installation is straightforward and ensures a tight, vibration-resistant fit.

This anode is built to strict marine-grade specifications to withstand continuous exposure to harsh seawater conditions. Its large size and robust weight ensure it provides long-lasting protection, making it ideal for commercial vessels, luxury yachts, fishing boats, and other larger craft. Regular inspection and replacement of shaft anodes like the QT-167 are crucial for maintaining the performance and longevity of your vessel’s propulsion system.

Key Features of the QT-167 Shaft Anode:

• Designed for 167mm (6-5/8″) propeller shafts

• Made from high-quality zinc for superior saltwater protection

• Functions as a sacrificial anode, protecting shafts from galvanic corrosion

• Precision-machined bore for accurate fit and easy installation

• Heavy-duty construction ensures long service life in harsh marine environments
