Hall anchor is a typical and widely used stockless anchor. The shank is forged steel, and the crown that holds the two flukes together is cast steel. The hall anchor weight ranges from 40kg to 46000kg. The surface is treated with black tarred painting and hot-dip galvanized.
During assembly, the anchor is passed from bottom to top through the crown until the anchor shank at the lower end is close to the pit of the crown. Then two bolts are inserted into the crown to prevent the anchor shank from coming out. In this way, the anchor flukes can turn relative to the anchor shank.
Hall anchors are not only manufactured for easy assembly, its biggest advantage is that there is no anchor rod for convenient storage. When lifting, the anchor shank could be collected into the hawse pipe and the anchor is often in the state of throwing. The holding weight of the Hall anchor is relatively small, about 2.5 ~ 4. But because it is convenient, saving time and effort, its two flukes could dig into the bottom of the water, will not cause harm to ships, so it is widely used in various ships, as the main anchor.
