Folding Grapnel Anchor – Type A (Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel)

The Type A folding grapnel anchor is prized for its portability and strong holding power in diverse conditions. It features four folding flukes that lock open to grip the bottom firmly, yet fold flat along the shank for easy storage. Made from marine-grade galvanized steel, it resists rust and wear even in saltwater use. This anchor is especially useful for small vessels – from dinghies and inflatables to personal watercraft – as a primary or backup anchor. It sets quickly in sandy, muddy, or gravel bottoms, helping stabilize the boat even with shifting wind or current. When not in use, its compact folded profile saves valuable space onboard. Whether you’re anchoring a small fishing boat or a tender, this folding “grapnel” anchor offers convenience without compromising holding power, giving you peace of mind on the water.
