A soluble anode is provided for electroplating coating metal, such as nickel, onto a moving metal sheet. The anode includes an anode body (40) consisting of coating metal, which extends along a longitudinal direction, and an anode head (41) provided with a hook (33) for fastening and for electrical connection to a support for supplying electrical current. The anode head is formed from a metal baseplate (62) connected by welding beads (63,64) of the anode body, to ensure temporary mechanical connection of the head to the anode body, and to connect them electrically, while allowing the anode head (41) to be reused, after removal of the welds, after the anode body (40) is consumed.
