Zinc Anode....................................1 ea.
Flex-a-lite has developed a zinc anode kit to be installed in the radiator as a replacement for the
drain petcock in radiators that are equipped with a 1/4” NPT bushing welded into the tank. Or it can
be installed in any 1/4” NPT hole that is available in the cooling system.
For years Anodes have been used in Heavy Duty and Marine applications to protect the cooling
systems and its many components from damage due to electrolysis or coolant additive failure/
breakdown. In some cases other corrosive material used in manufacturing and remanufacturing of
engine parts and components.
Flex-a-lite now brings this protection to you. Today’s cars and trucks have many aluminum parts
and parts made in combination with aluminum alloy. Aluminum parts may disintegrate from electrol-
ysis in the cooling system. The introduction of the zinc anode will protect your cooling system from
galvanic action “Eats” the zinc rather than your cooling system.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. BE SURE THE ENGINE IS COOL BEFORE PROCEEDING.
2. Verify the radiator being worked on has a 1/4” NPT drain petcock or an
available 1/4” NPT hole. Remove petcock or applicable plug.
3. Wrap brass threaded portion of anode with Teflon tape or sealing
compound. Screw into radiator. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. Refill coolant if
necessary and verify that no leaks are occuring with vehicle sitting or while
engine is running.
4. Check Anode every 12 months; replace when anode is 80% consumed.
