Authentic Battleship New Jersey Zinc Anode – Includes Certificate of Authenticity

Own a rare piece of the Battleship New Jersey (BB-62) with this authentic zinc sacrificial anode, removed during the ship's restoration and preservation efforts.

Sacrificial zinc anodes play a vital role in protecting a steel ship from corrosion. Mounted to the hull below the waterline, these zinc blocks naturally corrode over time instead of the ship's steel, helping preserve the integrity of the vessel while she served and continues to protect her during preservation.

Each anode bears the marks of its time in service, making every piece a one-of-a-kind artifact. Whether displayed in an office, workshop, or collection, this is a genuine piece of naval engineering and American history.

Every zinc anode includes a Certificate of Authenticity, verifying that it was removed from the historic Battleship New Jersey during restoration.

Proceeds from your purchase directly support the ongoing preservation and educational mission of the Battleship New Jersey Museum & Memorial, helping ensure America's most decorated battleship remains a living monument for future generations.
