Zinc Replacement Service: Preserving Your Vessel's Integrity
Explore how our experts protect critical areas against oxidation with strategically placed zinc replacement.
Zinc replacement, also known as sacrificial elements, play a crucial role in defending vessels against corrosion. Here’s an enhanced description of common areas where these elements are found and their key functionality:
- Boat Hull:
- Placed strategically on the vessel’s hull, zinc replacement acts as sacrificial barriers. Their function is to attract corrosion, preventing it from directly affecting the ship’s structure.
- Propulsion Blades:
- Positioned on propulsion blades, zinc replacement is vital for preventing corrosion in these crucial propulsion system parts. Their main objective is to preserve the integrity and operational efficiency of the propulsion system.
- Lower Unit of Outboard Motor:
- The lower unit of an outboard motor is prone to oxidation. Here, zinc replacement provides protection, preventing wear and damage from corrosion.
- Heat Exchangers:
- In cooling systems, such as heat exchangers, zinc replacement is essential for preventing corrosion. They protect internal components and ensure optimal functionality.
- Steering Mechanism:
- In the steering system, zinc replacement helps prevent oxidation that could affect the functionality and safety of the steering mechanism.
- Fresh and Saltwater Systems:
- Placed in freshwater and saltwater systems, zinc replacement protects pipes, pumps, and other components against corrosion. This ensures prolonged and efficient system operation. Collectively, zinc replacement plays a vital role as sacrificial barriers, defending crucial parts of a vessel against oxidation and extending its lifespan.

Zinc Element Maintenance: Keys to Preserve Your Vessel
Tips and recommended frequency for inspecting and replacing zinc elements, ensuring integrity and preventing oxidation damage in different marine environments.
The frequency of inspecting and replacing zinc elements on your vessel is crucial to maintaining its integrity and preventing oxidation damage. Factors such as the type of water you navigate and marine activity influence this need. Generally, inspections are advised every 6 to 12 months. In more aggressive environments, such as saltwater, where oxidation is faster, biannual reviews are recommended. If you observe significant wear on the zinc elements, it’s advisable to replace them even before the established timeframe.
Additionally, some extra tips include the importance of checking the electrical connection of the elements, as poor contact can reduce their effectiveness. It’s also recommended to clean the elements and surrounding areas during each inspection to remove any dirt or deposits that may affect their performance. Keeping a record of inspection and replacement dates will help establish a pattern and plan for future interventions more effectively.
If zinc elements are not present or are noticeably worn, they are exposed to electrolysis, which can weaken blades, shafts, supports, rudders, and any other metal parts underwater, causing cracks and breaks.
