ANCHOR STRENGTH ESTIMATOR — FIND OUT IF IT WILL HOLD
Enter anchor type and load. Find out if your chosen anchor point is strong enough for vehicle recovery.
Recovery Anchor Strength Estimator — Is Your Anchor Point Safe?
Not every tree, rock, or stake can handle a full recovery load. Estimate the anchor strength before you apply tension.
Select anchor type, soil conditions, and vehicle weight. The estimator returns a safe working load estimate for your anchor point and flags if it’s insufficient.
An anchor point that fails under recovery load can snap back a kinetic rope or pull hardware directly at crew members. Anchor assessment is the first step in safe recovery.
