Reliable and Efficient Anchor Rode for Marine Use

The Lewmar HM10HT100PX Anchor Rode is designed to enhance anchoring performance while minimizing common issues associated with traditional 3-strand ropes. This anchor rode includes 10 feet of 1/4" G4 chain and 100 feet of 1/2" 8-plait nylon line, making it an ideal choice for boaters seeking superior durability and smooth windlass operation. The innovative 8-plait construction provides exceptional handling, ensuring easy deployment and retrieval while reducing tangling and stiffness over time.

Advanced 8-Plait Nylon Rope Construction

The 8-plait nylon rope eliminates many of the drawbacks of 3-strand rope by offering a more relaxed lay that tightens under load. Unlike traditional options, it remains flexible and easy to manage while maintaining the same tensile strength. Key benefits include:

• No tangling or coiling: The rope flakes and falls upon itself, preventing bird’s nests in the anchor locker.
• Minimal twisting and knotting: Designed to stay smooth and free of unwanted loops.
• Improved windlass performance: Reduced stretch prevents excessive grip on the gypsy, minimizing wear and tear.
• Easier storage: Falls into the locker much like chain, optimizing space usage.
• Enhanced saltwater resistance: 80% less prone to stiffness compared to 3-strand rope.
