Lewmar DTX Stainless Steel Plow Anchor, 22 lb, Part 0057210, for Boats 25-41 Feet
The Lewmar DTX anchor is a one-piece stainless steel plow anchor built to set immediately at any drop angle, giving consistent holding power without the need to reposition or re-set. This 22 lb model is sized for boats 25 feet to 41 feet in length and uses a narrow shank that penetrates the seabed quickly for deep, secure engagement.
Construction is 316 stainless steel throughout for corrosion resistance and long-term durability in saltwater and freshwater environments alike. The anchor is self-launching, meaning it deploys cleanly from a bow roller without hanging up or requiring manual adjustment. A lead ballast built into the tip of the anchor helps it find the optimal center of gravity as it drops, so it digs into the seabed in the correct orientation rather than landing flat or on its side. This design gives the DTX anchor a high holding-power-to-weight ratio, independently certified by Lloyd's Test Certification.
The recommended chain size for this anchor is 5/16 inch or 8 mm. As a one-piece design with no moving pivot parts, the DTX anchor avoids the wear points and rattle common to hinged plow anchors, making it a durable primary or secondary ground tackle choice for cruising and coastal boats in the 25 to 41 foot range.
