SMITH 100108977 is a Corrogard zinc-plated copper screw-in water heater element rated at 6000 watts and 480 volts, designed for residential and light commercial electric water heater service. At 13.125 inches in length, this mid-line element is engineered with a low watt density relative to its size, which reduces scale buildup and extends operational life. The zinc-plated copper construction provides corrosion protection in environments where water chemistry or mineral content accelerates element degradation. A gasket is included for a complete, leak-ready installation. HVAC and plumbing technicians install this element as a direct replacement in compatible electric storage water heaters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis element is suited for residential and light commercial electric water heater applications requiring a 480-volt, 6000-watt screw-in configuration. The Corrogard series targets installations where standard copper elements have shown reduced service life due to corrosive water conditions. The screw-in mounting style is the most common element connection type found in residential tank-style electric water heaters, making this a practical replacement option for service technicians working in field conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6000-watt output at 480 volts for high-voltage residential and light commercial water heater circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCorrogard zinc-plated copper construction for improved corrosion resistance over standard copper elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow watt density design reduces scale accumulation and extends element service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-in configuration for straightforward field replacement without specialized tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes gasket for a complete, seal-ready installation out of the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for both residential and light commercial water heater service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style screw-in replacement element for residential and light commercial electric storage water heaters requiring a 480-volt, 6000-watt element at 13.125 inches in length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified service technician. Shut off electrical power at the breaker panel and close the cold water supply valve before removing the existing element. A standard element wrench is required for removal and installation of screw-in type elements. Verify that the tank is fully filled with water before restoring power to prevent dry-fire damage to the new element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 480 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6000 watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElement Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-In\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Residential and Light Commercial\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gasket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: A.O.
