What’s in the Box

  • 1 × Aluminum trim tab anode

Note: A mounting bolt or other hardware is not confirmed as included. Reuse the original hardware only if it is serviceable and correct for your engine, or obtain replacement hardware separately as required.

Installation Notes

  1. Remove the key and ensure the engine cannot start before beginning work.
  2. Locate the existing trim tab anode on the lower unit and remove the retaining hardware.
  3. Clean corrosion, paint, sealant, and debris from the mounting contact surfaces. Good metal-to-metal contact is necessary for the anode to work correctly.
  4. Position the replacement anode in the same orientation as the original and install the correct retaining hardware.
  5. Tighten the hardware according to the applicable Yamaha service-manual specification. Do not overtighten or coat the contact surfaces with insulating paint.
  6. Inspect the installation before launching the boat and check the anode periodically for proper consumption.

Maintenance & FAQ

How do I confirm that this anode fits my engine?

Confirm that your original anode or parts documentation identifies Yamaha OEM reference 6K1-45371-02 and that your engine is a 120 HP or 200 HP counter-rotation application. Model names alone are not sufficient because lower-unit configuration and serial range can affect fitment.

Why is this anode made of aluminum?

Aluminum anodes are commonly used for broad marine operating conditions, including saltwater and brackish-water service. The correct anode material depends on the boat, engine, water conditions, and manufacturer application.

When should a trim tab anode be replaced?

Inspect the anode regularly and replace it when it is substantially consumed, deeply pitted, loose, damaged, or no longer making a clean electrical connection with the mounting surface. Usage and water conditions determine service life.

Is this an OEM Yamaha part?

No. This listing is for an aftermarket replacement anode referenced to Yamaha OEM number 6K1-45371-02. Yamaha is a registered trademark of Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.; this product is not manufactured or supplied by Yamaha.

Safety & Important Information

  • Verify the OEM reference, original anode shape, mounting arrangement, and lower-unit configuration before ordering.
  • Do not paint, grease, or electrically isolate the anode-to-lower-unit contact area.
  • Use the correct hardware and service-manual torque specification for your engine.
  • Professional installation is recommended if the mounting hardware is corroded or the original anode cannot be removed safely.
