1 2 Mooring Chain refers to a heavy-duty chain used for securing vessels to moorings, typically made of high-strength steel.

Anchor Chains are robust chains connecting the anchor to the ship, designed to withstand harsh marine conditions and provide stability.

Both chains are critical for maritime safety, ensuring ships remain anchored or moored securely in various water depths.
