MAXPROP zinc “gasket”?

[massnspace]

Replacing the zinc on a (new to me) maxprop.

Old zinc completely gone. What was left are the 3 screws, and some type of metal shim or gasket (please see picture).

What is it? Does it go back on between the new zinc and the prop hub???

some aftermarket anodes have a "retaining ring" built-in:

As said above,
I believe that is the inner metal ring cast inside the anode. The anode is a zink or aluminum cone screwed to the rear of the prop, this metal ring is inside. I get our anodes from PYI in Washington but they are available from several sources.
