Duckbill Earth Anchors Hold Down Anything

Written by Duncan Page | August 3, 2009

Strong, Safe, Cost-Effective 

Duckbill Earth Anchors are the easiest, safest and most cost-effective way to securely anchor anything! Each rustproof aluminum alloy anchor has a galvanized cable securely attached. The end above ground has a loop for easy attachment. When you need to securely fasten anything to the ground, use a Duckbill!

  • Easy to Install
  1. Anchors are driven into the ground using a re-usable drive rod.
  2. The rod is removed once the anchor reaches the desired depth, usually when the length of the attached cable is in the ground. There is no need to dig a hole, saving you time and extra labor.
  3. Pulling on the conveniently looped end of the cable pivots the anchor into a locked position. The anchor pulls against undisturbed soil, increasing the holding power.
  4. Anchor is ready to use.
  • Safe to Use
  1. Duckbill anchors leave no stakes, pipes or stems above ground level.
  2. The loop end will not injure people or damage equipment.
  • Versatile and Convenient

  1. Anchors are also available without cables
  2. Available with pre-attached stainless steel cables.
  3. There are four sizes:
  • 40-DB1  -  20", 1/16" cable, 300 pound capacity  -  use drive rod DS-40
