Description
Breaking from the Rocna design, the Vulcan features a unique combination of shank and fluke geometry including an innovative roll-palm(A) at the rear of the fluke which self-rights the anchor on the seabed without the use of a roll-bar. This is assisted by the V-bulb (B) which extends fluke ballast downward to gain maximum leverage and efficiency. This development permits a larger fluke surface area than competing designs which rely on simple dead weight, while the concave fluke (C) is similar in design to the Rocna, directly equating to more holding power and security.
Fit for All Vessels and their Operators
The omission of a roll-bar along with a carefully designed shank profile (D) ensures a snug fit on the bows of a widely expanded range of vessels. Platforms, bowsprits, prods, stays, and other protrusions are easily cleared with no hassle or inconvenience.
Smooth Bow Interaction & Compatibility
The Vulcans shank shape (D) encourages self-launching and self-stowing upon retrieval on the majority of bow rollers, with a liquid smooth action, ensuring ease of use for all operators.
Strength from Sophisticated Design
In addition to the use of high tensile steel, shank strength is optimized by a unique I+V profile shank design (E), granting improved resistance to bending courtesy of a computer optimized I-beam geometry. This visually elegant innovation also improves setting performance, with the lower V edge (F) cutting into the seabed and minimizing resistance to a deep and secure burial.
