            Z-Guard Zinc Anodes to a Friend 
 Tank anodes
            are used to complement the coating at areas of exposed steel
            prolonging the life of the coating and structure. Hydrogen is
            evolved from aluminium anodes and thermite sparking may occur when
            light alloys impact on rusty steel. Therefore there is a height
            restriction in cargo/ballast tanks in tankers that anodes are not
            located at a height (in m) greater than 27/W where W is the total
            mass (in kg) of the anode and insert.
