Ultra Marine Ultra Anchor - Stainless Steel

Ultra Marine Ultra Anchor - Stainless Steel

Ultra Marine Ultra Anchor - Stainless Steel are Hand-made from 316 stainless steel and hand polished. Ultra Anchors demonstrate the importance of correct weight distribution and design when setting and recovering an anchor. In fact, invert any Ultra Anchor and it will instantly recover itself to the attack position. Such performance has been achieved thanks to the innovative patented features displayed below. Each Anchor is easily recoverable due to the flat pivot surface on the underside base.

Ultra Anchors are suitable for all vessel types and can be securely located on the bow roller. Standard anchor sizes range from 5 kg to 360 kg (larger anchors on request). Using Europe’s best materials and fabricated by specialist engineers, Ultra Anchors are supplied with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects under normal conditions and use.

Ultra Marine Ultra Anchor - Stainless Steel Key Features

• Hollow Shank: Enables weight to be concentrated on anchor tip.

• Tubular Construction: Anchor cannot lie on its spine and recovers instantly to the attack position. Anchor will also load correctly into the bow roller.

• Lead Filled Tip: Lead is inserted into the anchor tip, achieving the optimal weight distribution and ensuring the anchor will penetrate unfavourable bottom conditions.

• Scratch-Catch Point: Especially, it is positioned at bottom. It prevents dragging and provides instant set when anchor moves.

• Curved Tip: Importantly, the anchor tip is shaped downwards, ensuring a continuous setting under unfavourable weather conditions. Its angles on the other hand let it help anchor instant set even the anchor is not at the right attack position.

• Max Holding Power Base: The concaved base/fluke has the appearance of a shovel and has extreme holding power with a grater surface area than conventional style anchors. The result is more secure, higher holding power anchor that will not release.

• Reinforced Eye: Even under the most extreme load the shank’s reinforced eye will not bend, break or fail.

• Flat Underside: Once you begin to recover the anchor from the sea floor, it pivots itself on the flat section and begins to release (boat should be directly over anchor).

• Side Wing Plates: The ULTRAnchor does not release in a changing wind or tide, it performs a complete 180 degree rotation (while still buried) on its own length and holds firm. On the other hand, it helps easy transport and a continuous geometry on bow rollers.

• Non Chain-Foul Bar: Often chain can foul around the shank of the anchor, resulting in the anchor not able to set. The clever design features of the non chain-foul bar ensures chain simply cannot wrap around the shank and provides the ability to attach a trip line. On the other hand, it helps easy transport and a continuous anchor geometry on bow rollers.

• Anchor Weight Detail: The anchor weight is stamped into the shank and identifies the anchor size in both kg’s and Ibs.

• Serial Number: Every ULTRAnchor is stamped with a unique serial number, ensuring your anchor is always identifiable.

Ultra Marine Ultra Anchor - Stainless Steel FAQs

• What material is used in its construction?  These anchors are handcrafted in Europe using high-grade marine stainless steel. 

• Body: 316L stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion and does not require re-galvanization.

• Shank: High-strength 318LN (Duplex) stainless steel.

• Finish: Hand-polished to a mirror finish, which prevents mud and sand from sticking and facilitates easy cleaning.

• What size anchor do I need for my boat? Anchor sizing depends on the boat's displacement (tons) and length overall (LOA). Common recommendations include: 

• 5kg - 8kg: For vessels under 6 meters or up to 8–10 meters in some conditions.

• 12kg: Monohull sailboats around 9 meters / 3.8 tons.

• 21kg: Monohull sailboats around 12.6 meters / 10.2 tons.

• 27kg: Monohull sailboats around 14.3 meters / 14.6 tons.

• Will it fit my existing bow roller?  The Ultra Anchor is designed to fit most standard bow rollers. Its tubular construction and non-chain-foul bar help it naturally align and settle onto the pulley without human interference. For specific fits.

• What kind of warranty is provided? Ultra Marine provides a Lifetime Manufacturer’s Warranty against manufacturing defects, including bending, breaking, cracking, and rusting. Eligibility: Applies only to the original purchaser and is non-transferable. The anchor must be registered with Ultra Marine after purchase to benefit from fast claim procedures. Every anchor is stamped with a unique serial number and its weight in both kg and lbs for identification and warranty verification.
