Why Aluminum Anodes?

Aluminum anodes provide consistent cathodic protection across salt, brackish, and freshwater environments. Unlike zinc, which can become inactive in low-salinity water, aluminum remains active and effective in all water conditions. Navalloy® aluminum anodes also offer extended service life and environmentally responsible performance.
