Abstract  We study the propagation and collision of the compacton-like kinks in the system of an anharmonic lattice with a double well on-site potential by a direct algebraic method and numerical experiments. It is found that the localization of the compacton-like kinks is related to the nonlinear coupling parameter Cnl and the potential barrier height V0 of the double well potential. The velocity of the propagation of the compacton-like kinks is determined by the linear coupling parameter C, the nonlinear coupling parameter Cnl and the localization parameter q. Numerical experiments demonstrate that appropriate Cl  is not detrimental to a stable propagation of the compacton-like kinks. However, the collision of compacton-like kinks and anti-kinks in the lattice with comparatively small Cl leads to the emergence of a discrete stationary breather and small amplitude nonlinear oscillation background, while moderate Cl results in the emergence of two deformed kinks with radiating oscillations and lower propagation velocities.
