Customized 316 Stainless Steel Boat Hinged Fluke Anchor Marine Docking Danforth Anchor
Danforth Anchor
The Danforth anchor, also known as the "fluke anchor," is a widely used type of lightweight anchor that is especially popular among recreational boaters and sailors. Designed for efficiency and ease of use, the Danforth anchor features a unique shape that includes a balanced design with two large flukes (arms) that can dig into the seabed and provide strong holding power. The Danforth anchor typically consists of a central shank and two pivoting flukes that are attached at the top.
The flukes are usually made of galvanized steel or other durable materials to resist corrosion. The anchor's lightweight construction is one of its main advantages, making it easy to handle, deploy, and retrieve. When the anchor is dropped into the water, the flukes are designed to bury themselves into the seabed-such as sand or mud-when the boat is pulled in a specific direction.
One of the standout features of the Danforth anchor is its outstanding holding power relative to its weight. It can hold effectively in softer bottoms, which is why it is favored in various sailing conditions.
The ability of the flukes to penetrate and "set" in the seabed allows the anchor to resist pulling out when subjected to wind and wave action. The Danforth anchor is predominantly used in recreational boating, including sailboats, powerboats, and small craft. It is especially useful for anchoring in protected coves or shallow waters where soft seabed conditions are common. Boaters appreciate its effectiveness in providing a secure hold during calm days as well as in moderate winds. The design makes it suitable for a range of boat sizes, from small day sailors to larger cruising yachts.

Superior Holding Power
The design of the anchor, including its sharp flukes and wide swivel handle, enables it to penetrate deep into the seabed and provide a stronghold in all types of seabeds, including sand, mud, and gravel. This stronghold helps ensure that the vessel remains firmly anchored in place, even in adverse weather conditions.
Lightweight And Easy To Dtore
Compared to other types of anchors, Anchors are generally lightweight, making them easy to handle and store on board. The compact design and foldable handle allow them to be conveniently stored in lockers or on the bow roller when not in use.
Versatile
The sharp flukes and wide swivel handle enable the anchor to be quickly and securely secured in varying seabed conditions, giving the crew the confidence that their vessel is securely anchored.
Quick And Easy Fixing
The anchor is designed to be quickly and easily fixed to the seabed, with minimal effort from the crew. The flukes are designed to quickly penetrate the seabed, while the swivel handle helps orient the anchor in the right direction for maximum holding power. This quick and easy fixing process saves time and effort in anchoring the vessel, especially in changing weather or when the anchorage is narrow.
Durable And Reliable Construction
Anchors are typically made from high-quality steel or aluminum materials that are durable and corrosion-resistant. This sturdy construction ensures that the anchor can withstand the harsh marine environment and frequent use without compromising its performance. Anchors are also designed to resist bending, breaking, or fouling, making them a reliable choice for boaters looking for a sturdy anchoring solution.
