ABOUT THE HHP TW ANCHOR
The TW Anchor is known by several different names, due to the variety of designs with equivalent specifications that are widely adopted for use in this industry.
It's weight is at least 25% lower than a regular stockless anchor of the same holding power, making it's design convenient and efficient.
The HHP TW Anchor is one of the newest High Holding Power anchors for ships, developed on the XX century in Italy, Southern Europe, and used across the world by ships of almost all different classes and sizes.
Can be supplied as is, or with a hot dip galvanized finish, or paint coated.
The HHP TW Anchor is one of the most widely used in ships across Europe, of almost any sizes. It is mainly used by commercial ships, such as cargo ships or operations vessels.

The TW Anchor is popular due to it's design, it is fully balanced, meaning that when the anchor is pooled from the water it will always align vertically and fit correctly into the anchor pocket. There is a special type of anchor pocket used for this anchor, which is specially popular in Europe. This allows the ship operator to pool TW Anchors out of the water into the anchor pocket efficiently, reducing operational time.
