Product Description
Magnesium Anode Rod is a crucial component used in water heaters to prevent corrosion and extend the tank's lifespan. Made from magnesium, it acts as a sacrificial metal, corroding in place of the tank's steel interior. This process, known as cathodic protection, occurs because magnesium has a higher electrochemical potential compared to steel, attracting corrosive elements. Regular inspection and replacement of the anode rod ensure optimal protection, preventing rust and leaks. The effectiveness of Magnesium Anode Rod in hard and soft water conditions makes it a preferred choice over aluminum and zinc anodes, contributing to improved water quality and heater efficiency.
