Fortress Marine Anchors & Complete Systems (FX-7 to FX-125)
The World’s Highest Holding Power-to-Weight Ratio
The Fortress FX series is the definitive lightweight anchoring solution, precision-machined from high-tensile, rust-proof Aluminum-Magnesium alloy. Whether you are outfitting a 16-foot skiff or a 150-foot motor yacht, Fortress anchors provide superior safety and performance without the deck-weight of traditional steel.
Advanced Engineering & Performance
- Patented Dual-Angle Technology: All models feature adjustable flukes—32° for sand/clay and 45° for soft mud—ensuring a secure set where other anchors fail.
- High-Tensile Alcoa Alloy: Precision-machined, sharpened flukes dig deep and set fast. The non-magnetic, rust-proof build offers a lifetime of corrosion resistance.
- Independent Proof: Consistently ranked as the highest-holding power anchor in independent tests conducted by the US Navy and major marine publications.
- American Made: Proudly manufactured in the USA and guaranteed for life against breakage.
Available Purchase Options
- Complete Anchoring Systems (-AS): A turn-key solution available for FX-7 through FX-16 models. These include the FX anchor, Mud Palms, G-30 galvanized chain, and pre-spliced three-strand nylon rope.
- Professional Anchors: Standalone FX anchors available from FX-7 up to the industrial-grade FX-125. Ideal for custom ground tackle setups on larger vessels and yachts.
