Sierra Magnesium Anode Kit 18-6160M, Replaces 888760Q01, for Mercruiser Bravo II & Bravo III

The Sierra 18-6160M is a magnesium anode kit engineered to protect the underwater metal components of Mercruiser Bravo drive units from galvanic corrosion. Magnesium anodes are designed specifically for fresh water only applications, where they sacrifice themselves ahead of the drive's aluminum and steel components, preventing costly corrosion damage to the sterndrive. This kit fits Mercruiser Bravo II (1989 & Up) and Bravo III (1989-03) drives.

Sierra engineers this anode kit to meet or exceed the performance of the original equipment part it replaces, and it directly cross-references OEM Mercruiser part numbers 888760Q01, 97-888760Q03, and 888760A1. The kit weighs 1.61 pounds and measures 2.5 x 8.31 x 11.31 inches, with a package quantity of one kit per unit.
