Mounted directly to the engine, the anode corrodes preferentially in place of surrounding metal engine components, helping to slow the galvanic corrosion that saltwater and brackish-water operation causes over time. Regular anode inspection and replacement is one of the most cost-effective ways to protect an engine's long-term integrity, and the 18-6014A is sized and shaped as a direct fit for the engines it is designed for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis anode is built for inline 3, 4, and 6 cylinder engines as well as V6 engines, making it a common replacement part for engine owners performing routine zinc\/anode maintenance. It is manufactured from aluminum, a material widely used in anode applications for its reliable sacrificial corrosion rate. The part is cross-referenced to several Mercury Marine OEM numbers, so it can be ordered as a direct replacement using either the Sierra part number or any of the equivalent Mercury part numbers listed below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sierra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18-6014A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine Fitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inline 3, 4 \u0026amp;
