Models The Duckbill Anchor Principle Saving time and labor, patented Duckbill® Anchors work like toggle bolts in the soil. Duckbill Anchors 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 Anchor into a perpendicular “load lock” position in undisturbed soil.
