HHP Stevpris anchor, or called as MK5 anchor, as a super high holding power anchor, it is a deep penetration anchor with a plough handle.It is welded by high strength steel plate. Its grip coefficient can reach 33-55 times of the weight of the anchor itself. It has two angles of 32 degrees and 55 degrees. It is widely used in sand, gravel soil, clay, soft soil and other geology, suitable for semi-permanent and permanent mooring.This anchor design as a split structure, with anchor head and anchor shank seperated for easy transportation and installation. Through technical research and development and design, Haosail optimizes material separation and product production process, which is more suitable for the use of deep-sea aquaculture mooring.
The MK5 anchor stands as a premium high-performance mooring solution, engineered for exceptional reliability in demanding marine environments. Built with robust high-strength steel and precision-engineered flukes, it delivers superior holding power across diverse seabeds-from hard coral and dense sand to clay and gravel-thanks to its adjustable fluke angle and optimized weight distribution. Designed to withstand extreme weather, strong currents, and prolonged saltwater exposure, its anti-corrosion coatings and durable construction ensure long-term performance with minimal maintenance.
Ideal for both temporary and permanent moorings, the MK5 anchor is a go-to choice for offshore oil & gas platforms, floating wind farms, large-scale aquaculture facilities, and heavy-duty marine vessels. Its ability to balance high tensile strength with efficient seabed penetration makes it a trusted asset in ensuring stability for critical marine infrastructure, even in the harshest offshore conditions.

-
What material is the MK5 anchor made of?
MK5 anchors are primarily constructed from high-strength steel (e.g., Q345C or DH36), ensuring durability and resistance to harsh marine conditions. The surface is often treated with black asphalt paint or anti-corrosion coatings to enhance longevity.
-
What is the holding power capacity of the MK5 anchor?
MK5 anchors are renowned for their super high holding power (SHHP), with a holding power factor of 30-80 times their own weight, depending on soil conditions. For example, a 30-ton MK5 anchor can provide up to 1,200 tons of force in hard soils like limestone or dense sand.
-
Which classification society certifications does the MK5 anchor hold?
MK5 anchors are typically certified by major classification societies, including DNV-GL, ABS, LR, BV, RINA, CCS, and NK. These certifications ensure compliance with international standards (e.g., IACS, API, OCIMF) for offshore and marine applications.
-
How is the MK5 anchor installed?
Installation involves using an Anchor Handling Vessel (AHV) to deploy the anchor, often with a chaser system to guide penetration. The anchor is embedded into the seabed by tensioning the chain, achieving optimal holding depth. For permanent moorings, a pennant line system may be used.
-
What soil types is the MK5 anchor suitable for?
The MK5 anchor excels in hard soils (e.g., limestone, coral, dense sand) and adapts to various conditions, including soft clay and gravel. Its adjustable fluke angle (32°-50°) optimizes penetration and holding power across different seabeds.
-
How should the MK5 anchor be maintained?
Regular inspections for wear, corrosion, or damage to the fluke, shank, and chain are essential. Rinse with freshwater after saltwater use, and recoat protective paint as needed. Lubricate moving parts (e.g., shackles) to ensure smooth operation.
-
What is the typical warranty period for MK5 anchors?
Most manufacturers offer a 1-2 year warranty covering material defects and workmanship. Warranty terms may vary, so it's advisable to confirm with suppliers.
-
Can the MK5 anchor be customized for specific projects?
Yes. MK5 anchors can be tailored in weight (250 kg-35,000 kg), fluke design (e.g., Stevshark version with shark teeth for hard soils), and surface finishes. Custom end fittings (e.g., shackles) and colors are also available.
-
How is the MK5 anchor transported?
MK5 anchors are typically shipped nude (unpacked) or on wooden pallets for cost-effective. Large anchors may require specialized transport due to their weight and size.
-
What industries commonly use the MK5 anchor?
The MK5 anchor is widely used in offshore oil platforms, floating wind farms, aquaculture (fish farm moorings), and semi-submersible rigs. Its high holding power and adaptability make it a preferred choice for permanent and semi-permanent moorings.
