MERCRUISER ALUMINUM ANODE ZINC KIT ALPHA GENERATION 1

Performance Metals was launched by SciCast International, Inc, an established U. S. die-casting company, that has been in business in Pennsylvania since 1959. SciCast is ISO 9001/2000 certified and has full manufacturing, engineering and tooling capabilities.

Performance Metals specializes in corrosion management and has introduced many innovative solutions to the industry. Performance Metals supplies high performance Navalloy sacrificial anodes for the recreational boater. Navalloy is specially formulated to provide maximum protection and longer life and meets military specification MIL-A-24779 for material content. Performance Metals was the first U. S. company to manufacture die-cast anodes in this material. These anodes are required for the protection of aluminum outboards and outdrives.

Performance Metals is the only manufacturer in the world to offer a full range of hull, rudder, trim-tab and shaft anodes in Navalloy.

Performance Metals was the inventor of the patented, award winning "Red Spot" wear indicator that tells you when to change your anodes. The same patent also includes electronic monitoring of anodes and the first monitored system to be introduced is a water heater "intelligent anode."

Performance Metals supplies marine distributors and manufacturers throughout the U. S. and many countries overseas. Our anodes are carried by many of the leading marine retailers.

When should sacrificial anodes be replaced?

Anodes should be changed, at least, on an annual basis (including anodes in fresh water) or when they have corroded to half their original size. ------ Performance Metals “Premium” anodes include the exclusive patented “wear indicator.” When the red spot appears it is time to change your anode!
