Danforth boat anchors use two flat flukes, a transverse stock and a central shank. The selected photograph identifies this twin-fluke configuration and distinguishes it from claw, wing and roll-bar designs. Confirm the overall dimensions, stock span, crown movement, attachment eye and stowage arrangement for the exact model. Material, nominal mass, operating limitations and supporting documentation must be agreed for the chosen assembly rather than inferred from a polished product photograph.

Danforth Boat Anchors should be reviewed as part of a complete vessel arrangement. Twin flat flukes with a transverse stock and central shank. The chosen photograph shows a configuration, not a universal selection rule. Record stock width, crown movement and clearance around both flukes and confirm bow-roller fit, stock position and clearance for the shank. Keep the exact product reference with the boat installation drawing.
Provide the required dimensions, nominal mass and attachment information for the proposed version. A similar name or polished finish does not establish interchangeable parts, a material grade or an approved operating application. Ask for the documents needed for the selected model and identify any uncertainty before the order is confirmed.
The anchor, connector, rode, roller and securing arrangement need to be considered together. Follow the boat manufacturer’s requirements and the applicable product instructions. Do not substitute a component or alter a connection simply to make an unconfirmed assembly fit.
For replacement work, include photographs, measurements and any available product markings. Confirm the existing attachment and storage interfaces instead of using an approximate visual match. Keep the agreed drawing, supplied-parts list and inspection requirements together.
Review the other configurations in the Boat Anchors category, then send Hengke Casting the selected reference, quantity and installation detail. The quotation should identify the same assembly and required documentation as your enquiry.
