Mantus M1 Galvanized Anchors
DIGS LIKE NO OTHER: The Mantus Anchor was designed to penetrate dense, grassy bottoms and set with unparalleled holding power. The M1 Performance model further improved soft mud holding. The foils at the rear of the anchor change the angle of attack improving soft mud performance. Anchors also now features a keel that reinforces the nose, and a slotted shank design makes the shank stronger. When tested, Mantus anchors set faster and deeper than any other tested anchor.
The Stainless Steel anchors feature a 2205 Duplex shank and 316L stainless steel fluke. The surface is hardened by shot-peening and are then electro-polished to provide maximum corrosion resistance.
In the Galvanised Carbon Steel version, every part of the anchor system is hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection. (All shanks are HT ASTM 514 Steel and flukes are mild steel A36 equivalent).
The sharp-headed nose is precision machined to achieve the perfect chisel shape to achieve maximum penetrating power.
Which version is better? The M1 or M2? Both Anchors have an amazing setting and resetting ability and both are excellent choices for a primary anchor, but each has its own small specific advantages. Both anchors roll over well in most bottom conditions and it is rare for a properly weighted anchor to end up upside down. Nevertheless, M1 Anchor, due to its roll bar, is better at rolling over in a really soft, silty bottom. The M2 Anchor is less likely to get plugged up with muddy weeds, and without the need for the roll bar, M2 is less bulky. Thus, the M2 model provides a better fit for boats with bow pulpits with slotted anchor housing and bow sprits.
