Rheem-Ruud SP8371B Flexible Anode Water Heater

The Rheem-Ruud SP8371B Flexible Anode Water Heater is a essential part of systems that helps avoid corrosion and increases the longevity of the tank. This anode rod for the anodic magnesium material is highly flexible and is rust and degradation-resistant. The sacrificial anode which is a flexible metal rod installed inside the water heater tank draws the corrosive substances in the liquid thus sparing the tank’s structural integrity from rusting. The electrode rod is 54 inches in length, 1-1/16 inches in hex head size, and 0. 84 inches in rod diameter. This is due to its design which facilitates the better performance and installation.
