Fortress Marine Anchors – Fortress Anchor No Other Anchor Compares to Fortress Anchors, the Best Value in Anchoring Safety and Convenience For over three decades, the much lighter Fortress Anchor has out-performed substantially heavier steel anchors in holding power tests conducted all around the world. In the US Navy tests, not only did the Fortress out-perform heavier steel anchors, they were also able to withstand pull loads that averaged over 200x their own weight. Fortress Anchors are constructed using a high-tensile, corrosion-resistant, aluminium magnesium alloy. This results in a lighter, easy to handle anchor as well as superior holding power. The anchors have been designed to be easily disassembled for compact storage, or as a spare and/or a storm anchor. All Fortress Anchors are precision-machined for sharpness and quick penetration into common sea bottoms, which ensures faster setting-performance. Features Award Winning Design Tough anodised finish High-tech, rustproof aluminium alloy Superior holding power at a fraction of the weight Highest rating in over 20 independent tests worldwide Easily assembles and disassembles for convenient storage Adjustable fluke angles (32° for common bottoms, 45° for soft mud) Approved by American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) Used by the U.S Navy and U.S Coast Guard Fortress Anchor Selection Guide BOAT LENGTH ft 16′-27′ 28′-32′ 33′-38′ 39′-45′ 46′-51′ 52′-58′ 59′-68′ 69′-89′ 90′-150′ m 5-8m 8-10m 10-12m 12-14m 14-15m 16-18m 18-21m 21-27.1m 27.4-46m FORTRESS MODEL FX-7 FX-11 FX-16 FX-23 FX37 FX-55 FX-85 FX-115 FX-125 Weight lb (kg) 4 (1.8) 7 (3.2) 10 (4.5) 15 (6.8) 21 (9.5) 32 (14.4) 47 (21.2) 60 (27.2) 69 (31.1) Replaces Steel Anchors lb 6-9 10-13 14-18 19-28 33-50 50-65 70-90 90-100 100-170 kg 3-4 5-6 6-8 9-13 15-23 23-29 32-41 42-44 45-77 HOLDING POWER Working Load lb 700 900 1,250 2,000 3,000 4,000 5,250 6,000 6,750 kg 318 408 567 907 1,361 1,814 2,381 2,721 3,062 32° Hard Sanding Holding lb 2,800 3,600 5,000 8,000 12,000 16,000 21,000 24,000 27,000 kg 1,270 1,633 2,268 3,629 5,443 7,258 9,526 10,886 12,247 45° Soft Mud Holding lb 840 1,080 1,500 2,400 3,600 4,800 6,300 7,200 8,100 kg 381 490 680 1,089 1,633 2,177 2,858 3,265 3,674 32° Soft Mud Holding lb 420 540 750 1,200 1,800 2,400 3,150 3,600 4,050 kg 191 245 340 544 816 1,089 1,429 1,633 1,837 DIMENSIONS “A” Shank Length in (mm) 24″ (610) 27″ (686) 31″ (787) 36″ (914) 40″ (1,016) 46″ (1,168) 51″ (1,295) 51″ (1295) 56″ (1,422) “B” Fluke Length in (mm) 14″ (356) 16″ (406) 18″ (457) 21″ (533) 24″ (610) 27″ (686) 30″ (762) 33″ (838) 33″ (838) “C” Stock Length in (mm) 19″ (483) 22″ (559) 25″ (635) 29″ (737) 32″ (813) 37″ (940) 41″ (1,041) 45″ (1,143) 45″ (1,143) SUPPORT HARDWARE Proof Coil Chain in (mm) 3/16″ (5) 1/4″ (6) 5/16″ (8) 3/8″ (9) 3/8″ (9) 1/2″ (13) 1/2″ (13) 1/2″ (13) 1/2″ (13) Nylon Rope ** in (mm) 3/8″ (9) 3/8″ (9) 1/2″ (13) 5/8″ (16) 3/4″ (19) 7/8″ (22) 1″ (25) 1 1/4″ (32) 1 1/4″ (32) Shackle Size in (mm) 1/4″ (6) 1/4″ (6) 5/16″ (8) 3/8″ (10) 7/16″ (12) 1/2″ (12) 5/8″ (16) 5/8″ (16) 5/8″ (16) For product pricing and stock availability please call 852 2827 5876 or contact us.
