Anode Assembly for Rheem Vanguard
This anode assembly is a replacement part designed for Rheem Vanguard water heaters. It is supplied as a cut-to-fit rod measuring 44 by .9 inches in diameter. The component is intended for use with manufacturer model number 42V50FV and Grainger item 3WA6.
Sustained corrosion protection
The anode functions continuously while the tank holds water, sacrificing itself to protect the steel liner from galvanic attack. Its HAWA composition is selected for long service life under constant immersion. Regular inspection and replacement maintain the tank integrity over the heater's operational lifespan.
HAWA material and cut-to-fit design
The rod is manufactured from HAWA alloy and arrives at a 44-inch length with a .9-inch diameter for on-site trimming. This allows precise fitting to the specific tank depth without requiring multiple stock keeping units. The assembly threads directly into the existing anode port on compatible Rheem Vanguard models.
