The Volvo Penta 3588770 is a genuine OEM zinc anode kit for select SX sterndrive applications. It is designed to provide sacrificial corrosion protection for the drive by replacing the main service anodes as a complete kit. Current references consistently identify 3588770 as an anode kit for SX / DP-SM drive families.
Because this is a zinc anode kit, it is intended for saltwater use. Volvo Penta’s anode guidance explains that genuine marine anodes are application-specific protection parts, and current SX/DP-SM kit references describe this kit as a complete zinc package for those drives.

Engine Compatibility
Current supported references associate 3588770 with select Volvo Penta SX sterndrives and also show overlap with DP-SM applications. Fitment should be confirmed by exact drive model and serial number before ordering.
Serial Number Fitment Notice
Fitment should be verified using the Volvo Penta drive model and serial number. Matching by OEM part number 3588770 is the safest method, especially on serviced drives where installed anodes may not match by appearance alone.
When This Part Needs Replacement
Replace the kit when the installed anodes are heavily wasted, pitted, cracked, loose, or significantly reduced in size. Sacrificial anodes are designed to corrode first in order to protect the drive, so regular inspection and timely replacement are important.
Installation Notes
Install the replacement anodes on clean bare-metal contact surfaces and do not paint them. Good metal-to-metal contact is necessary for proper corrosion protection. Current kit references also indicate the kit is supplied with hardware.

Parts Desk Insight
A full anode kit is often the smarter service choice than replacing only one worn piece, because corrosion protection works best when the whole drive is maintained evenly. On SX drives, replacing the kit as a set helps keep protection balanced across the drive instead of leaving one area more exposed than another.
