Tecnoseal GUA351/2/B Large Rubber Pear Shape Anode Backing Pad

Tecnoseal GUA351/2/B Large Pear Anode Backing Pad is a neoprene mounting pad for the Tecnoseal 00351/2/B 2.1kg pear-anode pattern; comparable MG Duff ZD77-style installation. It sits between the anode body and the mounting surface to protect the surface and provide a correctly shaped bedding layer; the pad itself is not a sacrificial anode.

What Is This Backing Pad Used For?

The pad follows the long pear-anode and strap footprint, helping protect the mounting surface and support the anode body without replacing the electrical connection provided through the strap or bonding fixings.

The anode must still be electrically connected through its strap, studs or specified bonding arrangement. A rubber or neoprene pad does not create electrical continuity and should not be placed over a contact point that the installation design requires to remain bare metal.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the anode included? No. This listing is for the shaped backing pad only.
