Anchor Danforth Type 10kg

Hot-Dip Galvanized Marine Grade Steel

This 10kg Danforth-style fluke anchor is an essential piece of ground tackle for coastal and river cruising. Engineered with a traditional flat-folding design, it features sharp, wide flukes that penetrate deep into soft bottoms like sand and mud to provide exceptional holding power relative to its weight. The hot-dip galvanized finish ensures maximum corrosion resistance in harsh saltwater environments.

RELIABILITY: Built to provide a secure set in challenging tidal conditions. The hinged design allows the flukes to orient correctly for immediate seafloor engagement.

Questions & Answers

Is this a genuine original part?

This is a premium quality aftermarket replacement anchor, manufactured to meet or exceed standard marine industry specifications for weight and holding power.

How do I know if it is compatible?

Compatibility is based on boat length and displacement. For most vessels under 10 meters (33ft), a 10kg Danforth is the standard recommendation for primary anchoring in sandy conditions.

Can this anchor be used in rocky or weed-heavy areas?

Danforth-type anchors are highly specialized for penetrable bottoms like sand and mud. They are not recommended for rocky or heavily weeded seabeds where a Plough (CQR) or Bruce-style anchor may perform better.

Note: Please verify your vessel's requirements and local anchoring conditions before purchasing. Weights and dimensions are approximate.
