Sacrificial anodes protect the thruster's propeller and surrounding metal components from galvanic corrosion caused by electrolysis in the water, extending the service life of the drive unit. As the anode corrodes in place of the propeller and housing metal, it needs periodic replacement to keep the thruster protected, making this kit a routine maintenance item for boat owners running a Lewmar 140 TT thruster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is listed under Lewmar's Zincs \u0026amp; Anodes category and is sized specifically for the 140 TT bow thruster propeller assembly. Installing a genuine Lewmar anode kit ensures correct fit and proper sacrificial protection compared to generic zinc substitutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lewmar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 589150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zincs \u0026amp; Anodes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Thruster Model:\u003c\/strong\u003e 140 TT Bow Thruster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.19 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 743683011009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Lewmar 589150 anode kit used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 589150 is a sacrificial propeller anode kit for the Lewmar 140 TT bow thruster, designed to protect the propeller and nearby metal components from galvanic corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich bow thruster does part number 589150 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e Part number 589150 is sized for the Lewmar 140 TT bow thruster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow often should the 589150 anode be replaced?\u003c\/strong\u003e The anode should be inspected regularly and replaced once it has visibly corroded, since a depleted anode can no longer protect the 140 TT thruster's propeller and metal parts from electrolysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Lewmar 589150 anode kit weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 589150 propeller anode kit weighs 0.19 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 589150 anode kit a genuine Lewmar part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, 589150 is Lewmar's own manufacturer part number for this propeller anode kit, not a third-party equivalent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat category does this product fall under?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 589150 kit is listed in the Zincs \u0026amp; Anodes category, reflecting its role as a sacrificial corrosion-protection component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes replacing the anode require removing the propeller?\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit is a propeller anode replacement for the Lewmar 140 TT, and installation involves accessing the propeller assembly where the anode is fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use a generic zinc anode instead of the Lewmar 589150?\u003c\/strong\u003e For a confirmed fit on the 140 TT bow thruster, the Lewmar 589150 is the manufacturer-specified anode kit for that application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the UPC for the Lewmar 589150 anode kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The UPC for the Lewmar 589150 propeller anode kit is 743683011009.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does a bow thruster need a sacrificial anode?\u003c\/strong\u003e A sacrificial anode like the 589150 corrodes in place of the propeller and thruster metal, preventing galvanic corrosion from damaging the more expensive drive components on the 140 TT.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lewmar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025133576411,"sku":"LEW-589150","price":18.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/589150__79041.1722373458.500.750.jpg?v=1785329117","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/lewmar-589150-propeller-anode-kit-for-140-tt-bow-thruster","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
