## Long description

Magnesium sacrificial anode KOSPEL AMW 40×500 with M8 thread is a corrosion-protection component designed for water heaters and storage tanks. The anode has a 40 mm diameter and 500 mm length with an M8 threaded connection to enable straightforward replacement. Installed inside the tank, the magnesium rod corrodes preferentially, limiting corrosion of the metal walls and helping to extend the service life of water heating equipment while reducing the need for early repairs.
Advantages
The magnesium composition provides high electrochemical activity that effectively protects steel and other tank materials by acting as a sacrificial element. Its standard 40×500 dimensions and M8 thread make this anode compatible with many domestic and commercial water heaters, simplifying procurement and replacement. The rod’s design allows for direct installation without modification of existing mounting points, providing predictable sacrificial behavior and reliable tank protection over the typical lifespan of an anode.
Suitable for (tasks / use cases)
Replacement anode for domestic and commercial water heaters
Protection of hot water storage tanks and boiler cylinders
Maintenance spare part for prolonging appliance life and reducing corrosion-related repairs
Key specifications
Material: magnesium sacrificial rod
Diameter: 40 mm
Length: 500 mm
Connection: M8 threaded terminal
Application: internal corrosion protection for water heaters and storage tanks
How to use
Turn off the water heater and isolate power before beginning work. Drain the tank below the anode level if necessary and allow the unit to cool. Unscrew the existing anode and remove any scale or debris from the mounting hole. Insert the KOSPEL AMW 40×500 anode and tighten the M8 thread to the manufacturer-recommended torque or hand-tight plus a small wrench turn, ensuring a secure electrical connection to the tank. Refill the tank, restore power, and check for leaks and correct heater operation. Inspect the anode periodically and replace it when significant consumption or deep pitting is visible.
Usage recommendations
For reliable corrosion protection, inspect the anode annually and replace it when more than 50% of the original diameter has been consumed or when heavy pitting is present. Use compatible thread sealant or washer materials specified by the water heater manufacturer to maintain proper sealing and electrical contact. If water hardness or aggressive chemistry is high, consider more frequent checks or consult a technician for a suitable maintenance schedule.
