SR Smith ANODE Zinc Anode – Rail Protection

What This Part Is Used For
This zinc anode is installed on compatible pool rails or ladders to provide sacrificial corrosion protection. It mounts directly to the metal component and operates independently of pool equipment.

Why This Part Matters
In salt pools or aggressive water conditions, metal rails can corrode prematurely. The anode absorbs corrosive activity that would otherwise attack the rail. Replacing a spent anode helps extend the service life of pool rails and ladders.
