Fortress anchors are engineered for
performance.
Fortress anchors
are precision-machined from a high-tensile, corrosion-resistant, aluminum
magnesium alloy, and are sharper and able to penetrate faster and deeper into
most common sea bottoms than heavier, dull-edged traditional steel anchors which
weigh 50% more or even greater.
In the US Navy tests, not only did the Fortress
anchors out-perform much heavier steel anchors, they were also able to withstand
pull loads that averaged over 200x their own weight ... and without incurring
serious damage to the anchors, which was noted in the test report summary:
All Fortress Anchors feature Mud Palms designed to help the anchor set
faster in any type of sea bottom. Mud Palms create a "lift" to the crown of the
anchor, causing the flukes to point more directly to the seabed. This helps the
anchor set faster ... in any bottom.
Additional features include:
Fortress anchors can be quickly
disassembled for compact storage as a spare or storm anchor.
Fortress
anchors let you choose between two shank / fluke angles to provide outstanding
holding power in common sea bottoms – a 32° angle for sand, mud or clay, or a
45° angle for soft mud.
Fortress anchors offer a Lifetime Parts
Replacement Warranty. In the unlikely event of damaging an anchor part, Fortress
will replace the damaged part for free. The only cost to the customer is for
shipping & handling, which is nominal.
