The All Chain Anchor Rode consists entirely of metal links, providing superior strength and durability for anchoring. It offers excellent holding power and is resistant to abrasion from rocky or rough seabeds. The weight of the chain also helps maintain a low angle of pull, enhancing anchor performance.

Size: 10 mm to 150 mm diameter

Grade: Grade 2, Grade 3, or High-Tensile (HT) steel

Viscosity: N/A (not applicable for anchor chains)

Buoyancy: Negative (sinks due to steel material)

Material: High-strength carbon steel or alloy steel

Finish: Hot-dip galvanized or self-colored

Breaking Load: Varies by size and grade (e.g., 10 mm Grade 2: ~32 kN, 20 mm Grade 3: ~155 kN)

Proof Load: Typically 50% of breaking load

Certification: ABS, DNV, LR, or other marine classification standards

Link Type: Studlink or Studless (common for marine anchors)

Length: Customizable, typically supplied in 27.5-meter shots

Corrosion Resistance: Enhanced by galvanization or special coatings

Weight: Varies by size (e.g., 10 mm chain ~2.2 kg/m, 20 mm chain ~9 kg/m)

Elongation: Minimal under load (high-tensile chains exhibit less stretch)

Working Load Limit (WLL): Typically 1/4 to 1/6 of breaking load
