What Is an MMO Disc Anode?

An MMO disc anode is a titanium-based anode coated with mixed metal oxide and used in impressed current cathodic protection systems. It is commonly installed on ship hulls or marine structures where protective current needs to be delivered into seawater from a compact active surface.

Although “disc anode” usually refers to a round shape, marine ICCP projects may also require oval or elliptical MMO anodes depending on hull structure, available mounting space, current distribution, and OEM design requirements.

Feature What It Means Why It Matters
Titanium Substrate Titanium is used as the base material for the active anode body. Provides corrosion resistance, mechanical stability, and a reliable base for MMO coating.
MMO Coating Mixed metal oxide coating is applied to the active surface. Supports electrochemical current output in seawater ICCP systems.
Compact Active Surface Round, oval, or elliptical geometry provides a defined current output area. Helps fit hull-mounted ICCP layouts and localized marine protection zones.
Cable & Sealing Design Cable outlet, sealing, and backing connection are customized according to installation needs. Supports

Shape Options for Ship ICCP Layouts

MMO disc anodes can be supplied in different shape designs to match vessel structure, hull space, and current distribution requirements. Round, oval, and elliptical options should be selected according to the ICCP design, mounting position, coating area, and required current output.

Round MMO Disc

Round MMO Disc Anodes

Best for compact hull-mounted ICCP layouts where a circular active surface, standard mounting design, and balanced current output are preferred.

Oval MMO Anode

Oval MMO Anodes

Best for ship hull areas where longer surface coverage or space-limited installation requires an elongated anode shape.

Elliptical MMO Anode

Elliptical MMO Anodes

Best for customized ICCP layouts requiring smoother current distribution, tailored mounting area, or OEM-specific hull design.

Custom MMO Anode

Custom Marine MMO Anodes

Best for non-standard vessel structures, retrofit ICCP systems, offshore equipment, and project-specific mounting requirements.

Where MMO Disc Anodes Are Commonly Used

Commonly used in marine ICCP systems where compact, durable, and controlled current output is required in seawater environments. The final shape, active surface area, coating loading, cable sealing, and mounting design should be reviewed according to vessel structure and CP system requirements.

Application Why MMO Disc Anode Fits Key Review Factors
Ship Hull ICCP Systems Compact disc, round, oval, or elliptical anodes can be installed on hull surfaces to deliver protective current into seawater. Hull structure, mounting location, current output, coating area, cable sealing, and inspection access.
Marine Cathodic Protection MMO disc anodes support controlled current output for seawater-exposed steel structures and marine equipment. Seawater chemistry, exposure condition, current density, mounting design, and service life target.
Offshore Structures Custom MMO disc or oval anodes can be reviewed for offshore platforms, subsea structures, and seawater-contact components. Structure geometry, seawater depth, current demand, mounting support, and cable protection.
Seawater Intake Systems Compact MMO anodes can be reviewed for localized protection around seawater intake systems or related metallic components. Water flow, salinity, mounting method, fouling risk, cable routing, and current output.
Retrofit ICCP Projects Round, oval, or elliptical anodes can be customized to fit existing hull openings, mounting zones, or replacement requirements. Existing cutout size, backing structure, cable path, sealing method, and OEM compatibility.
Custom Marine CP Systems Shape, size, coating area, and connection design can be customized for project-specific marine cathodic protection layouts. Protected area, current requirement, installation space

Active Area, Coating System and Current Output Must Be Reviewed Together

For MMO disc anodes, shape selection is only one part of the design. The active coating area, current output, coating loading, cable sealing, mounting method, and seawater exposure condition must be reviewed together to support stable ICCP performance.

Active Surface Area

Affects current output and should match the CP system design and protection zone.

Coating Loading

Reviewed according to current density, seawater environment, and design life target.

Shape & Current Distribution

Round, oval, and elliptical anodes may support different current distribution patterns.

Cable Sealing & Connection

Reliable cable sealing and electrical continuity are critical for long-term operation in seawater.

MMO Anode Quality Control

Quality Control for MMO Disc Anodes

MMO disc anode quality depends on titanium substrate condition, surface preparation, coating consistency, active area accuracy, cable connection, sealing reliability, dimensional control, packing protection, and final documentation.

1. Titanium Substrate Review

Substrate material, geometry, surface condition, and machining accuracy are checked.

2. Surface Preparation

Prepared before coating to support coating adhesion and stable electrochemical performance.

3. MMO Coating Control

Coating type, coated area, consistency, and records are reviewed according to specs.

4. Cable & Sealing Inspection

Cable connection, sealing length, waterproof protection, and electrical continuity are checked.

5. Dimension & Mounting Check

Anode shape, active surface, bolt pattern, or mounting structure are checked against drawings.

Installation Considerations

Proper installation helps MMO disc anodes deliver stable current output in marine ICCP systems. Shape, mounting position, cable sealing, hull opening, backing structure, and inspection access should be reviewed before installation.

Installation Factor Why It Matters
Mounting Position Affects current distribution, protection coverage, and inspection accessibility.
Shape Selection Round, oval, or elliptical geometry should match hull structure and installation space.
Cable Routing & Sealing Protects insulation, maintains continuity, and marine sealing prevents water ingress.
Backing / Mounting Support Backing plate, flange, or bolts should match the vessel installation design.

Buyer Note:

MMO disc anode installation should be reviewed together with the ship ICCP system design. Share your vessel layout, anode drawing, current requirement, mounting method, cable specification, and seawater operating environment for engineering review.
