Rheem-Ruud SP11309T Anode Rod Overview
The Rheem-Ruud SP11309T is a genuine OEM replacement anode rod designed to protect water heater tanks from internal corrosion and premature failure. Measuring 3/4″ in diameter and 39-3/8″ in length, this anode rod is engineered to fit compatible Rheem and Ruud water heater models, providing reliable sacrificial protection that extends the service life of the tank.
How Anode Rods Work
Anode rods function through a process called electrolytic action — the rod material sacrificially corrodes in place of the steel tank lining. By periodically inspecting and replacing the anode rod, technicians can dramatically extend water heater service life and reduce the likelihood of costly tank failures.
