Advanced Corrosion Protection Riptide motors are impervious to saltwaters corrosive effects, thanks to premium-grade marine alloys and aluminum upper arms. Metals undergo a rigid multi-step cleaning process before being anodized or coated with a special zinc dichromate armor plating. All components are then finished with a durable 5-mil TGIC polyester, powder coat paint. When its all done, youre left with unequaled corrosion protection. Full Encapsulated Electronics Marine-grade urethane fully encapsulates Riptide control boards to protect the electronic circuitry. Also, all electrical connections are sealed with liquid-tight heat shrink tubing to form an impregnable barrier against saltwater. Sacrificial Anode Galvanic corrosion occurs when two dissimilar metals come into electrical contact through saltwater. Riptide fights back with a patented sacrificial zinc anode, a composite shaft and properly balanced materials that are close in electrical potential. The result is a motor thats completely protected from saltwaters destructive forces. Indestructible Composite Shaft Guaranteed For Life! Pound for pound, our composite shaft is stronger than steel. It flexes on impact and wont break, kink or corrode. Thats why were confident enough to make it the only trolling motor shaft thats guaranteed for life.
