Abstract: A corrosion resistant bimetal includes a part and one or more sacrificial anodes. The part includes a metal component that is susceptible to corrosion. The sacrificial anodes consists of an attachment to the part through a metallic bond between the metal component and the sacrificial anode to form a crystalline solid that includes the sacrificial anode and the metal component of the part.
