Description

The HHP Special Bruce Anchor is a High Holding Power (HHP) anchor featuring a claw-style fluke configuration, engineered for rapid setting and strong holding in soft to medium seabeds such as mud, sand, and silt. Its wide surface area and three-point contact design provide stable engagement and excellent resistance to drag, even under variable load directions. Known for its ease of handling and reliability, the Bruce-style anchor is particularly favored in commercial and offshore applications requiring fast deployment and predictable performance. Constructed from high-tensile steel with corrosion-resistant coatings, the Special Bruce Anchor meets IACS HHP standards and delivers durability, simplicity, and dependable anchoring in a variety of marine environments.

The HHP Special Bruce Anchor is suitable for boats with a bow, both yachts and military vessels. This model is also known as Bruce, Force, or Clow anchor.

Unlike other anchors of the same model, the Posidonia HHP Special Bruce Anchor has high holding power, which allows for a 25% weight reduction compared to a mass anchor. The HHP Special Bruce Anchor is suitable for all soft bottoms such as mud, sand, or gravel and provides good holding in rough or rocky terrain.
