Greenfield Products Fluke-Type Slip Ring Anchor PVC Coated

The Greenfield Products Fluke-Type Slip Ring Anchor is a PVC coated Danforth-style fluke anchor for recreational boats. It is also called a slip-ring fluke anchor or a vinyl coated Danforth anchor. It uses the traditional fluke design and adds a sliding ring that makes the anchor easier to retrieve.

Key Features:

• Danforth-style fluke design: Provides superior tensile strength and holding power.
• Slip-ring retrieval: Back the boat directly over the anchor and the ring slides to the crown. This frees the anchor from the opposite direction if it snags.
• PVC coating: The coating is specially formulated and undercoated for added adhesion. It protects boat finishes from the scratches and abrasions that come with normal use.
• Iron construction: The iron body is covered by the protective vinyl coating.

Anchoring Tips:

• Use anchor chain with steel fluke anchors. The chain adds the weight needed to keep the proper approach angle for setting.
• Fluke anchors need a scope of at least 5:1 (rope length to water depth) to set properly. A 7:1 scope is recommended.

This anchor suits light- to medium-duty use in moderate conditions. It is a practical choice for boaters who want dependable holding power and a coating that is gentle on the hull and deck.
