Seachoice Anode Kit – Mercruiser Alpha One Gen II (1991 & Newer), Magnesium | Freshwater
This complete magnesium anode kit is designed specifically for Mercruiser Alpha One Gen II stern drives from 1991 and newer, used in freshwater environments. It provides full corrosion protection across all anode positions on the drive, replacing every sacrificial anode in one convenient kit.
All components are cadmium-free and conform to Mil-Spec A-21412(SH). Magnesium anodes are the correct choice for freshwater use — they are more electrochemically active than aluminum or zinc in low-conductivity freshwater, providing effective galvanic protection where other anode materials may be too passive to work properly.
Kit Contents
- 1 block anode for the gimbal housing
- 1 anode plate for the top of the ventilation plate
- 1 skeg anode for the ventilation plate
- 2 collar anodes for the trim rams
- 1 anode collar between the prop and gear housing
- 18 stainless steel screws for installation
Key Features
- Magnesium construction — correct material for freshwater use
- Cadmium-free and environmentally responsible formulation
- Conforms to Mil-Spec A-21412(SH) military-grade corrosion protection standard
- Complete kit covers all 6 anode positions on the Alpha One Gen II drive
- Includes all mounting hardware for a straightforward installation
Compatible Applications
- Mercruiser Alpha One Gen II stern drives (1991 and newer)
- Lakes, rivers, and other freshwater environments
Parts Desk Insights
This kit is the right choice for owners of 1991 and newer Mercruiser Alpha One Gen II drives who operate exclusively in freshwater and want to replace all drive anodes in a single purchase. Magnesium is the correct anode material for freshwater — it is significantly more active than aluminum or zinc in low-conductivity water, where those materials may not corrode fast enough to provide effective galvanic protection. Using aluminum or zinc anodes in freshwater is a common mistake that can leave the drive underprotected. The Gen II drive has six anode positions in total, and this kit covers all of them, ensuring no position is missed during service. If you operate in saltwater or brackish water, use the aluminum version instead: Seachoice Anode Kit – Mercruiser Alpha One Gen II, Aluminum. For 1984–1990 Alpha One Gen I drives, see the Seachoice Anode Kit – Mercruiser Alpha One Gen I, Aluminum and Seachoice Anode Kit – Mercruiser Alpha One Gen I, Magnesium. For an OEM-spec alternative, see the MerCruiser Alpha One Gen II Magnesium Anode Kit.
