SecureFix Direct Galvanised Jet Claw Anchor - 15Kg

The curved flukes of the Bruce Style design help the anchor land properly on the seabed and dig in effectively, contributing to its strong holding power.

The Hot Dipped Galvanised (HDG) finish provides a protective layer that resists corrosion from saltwater, significantly extending the anchor's lifespan.

This anchor performs exceptionally well on sand, mud, and gravel. While it can work on other seabeds, its performance may vary.

High holding power means the anchor is designed to resist being pulled out of the seabed, providing a secure mooring even in challenging conditions like strong winds or currents.

For general use, a scope ratio of 5:1 to 7:1 (length of rode to depth of water) is commonly recommended. This can be adjusted based on specific conditions.

Always rinse the anchor thoroughly with fresh water after each use to remove salt, sand, and any marine growth. This helps maintain the galvanised finish.

The dimensions are approximately 315MM in height, 615MM in length, and 410MM in width.

Check the seabed type; this anchor performs best on sand, mud, or gravel. Ensure sufficient scope is being used. Try reversing gently to help the anchor dig in.

Verify that the anchor rode is securely attached and that there are no obstructions (e.g., rocks, debris) on the seabed preventing a full set. Increase scope if necessary. Check for damage to the anchor flukes.

This is normal wear and tear with heavy use. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after each use and consider touch-up galvanising paint if significant corrosion is observed. Ensure no significant damage to the base metal.

Ensure the anchor rode is not snagged. Try motoring forward slowly to break the anchor free. If it is severely fouled, you may need to approach from a different angle or use a tripping line if one is fitted.
