Earth Anchors

HUNDREDS OF USES:
• trees
• antennas
• scaffolding
• playground equipment
• fences
• airplanes
• signs

• sheds
• mobile homes
• tents
• large bushes
• winches
• towers
• structures





Foresight manufactures three separate lines of earth anchors made for every application imaginable:



 
For small to medium applications
Duckbill Performance features:
• instant point of anchoring
• prevents unwanted movement
• quick and easy installation
• saves time and money
• environmentally sensitive

DUCKBILL anchors, a patented labor and time saving device, work like a toggle bolt in soil. Duckbills are driven into the ground (with no holes, no digging and no concrete), providing a safe and environmentally sensitive installation. An upward pull on the anchor tendon rotates the Duckbill into a perpendicular "anchor lock" position in undisturbed soil. The result: superb holding capacities. Duckbill anchor systems offer the most effective, lightweight and economical solutions to any anchoring application, large or small.



For medium to large applications
Manta Ray Performance
Revolutionizes Anchoring Technology

MANTA RAYs are driven into the ground, not augured or torqued, nor is a hole dug or drilled. There is "no disturbance" or "displacement" of soil. Unlike other anchoring systems, MANTA RAY actually compacts the soil around itself - a clean, safe and simple operation.

The anchors are driven with conventional hydraulic/pneumatic equipment that is readily available worldwide. Once driven to the proper depth, the rod/tendon attached to the anchor is pulled to rotate the anchor into undisturbed soil - like a toggle bolt. This is called "ANCHOR LOCKING" the anchor (using the MANTA RAY Anchor Locker). The anchor is pulled upon to reach the holding capacity required which is measured by a gauge on the "ANCHOR LOCKER." Each anchor is immediately proof loaded to the exact capacity required. No other system offers this feature.





For heavy duty applications
Stingray performance features:
• 50 ton ultimate capacity
• 30 ton recommended working load
• with or without grout
• installation -
• mounted breaker
• track drill
• vibratory compactor





NOTE: For highly corrosive environments, anchors can be anodized, fabricated with stainless steel wire rope, plastic impregnated wire rope and other alternatives which provide superb corrosion resistance. Foresight engineers will work with you on these special fabrications.
