Anchor chain joining links are specialized connectors used to join sections of anchor chains securely. These links are designed to withstand high tension and corrosion in marine environments. They ensure the anchor chain remains intact and functional during anchoring operations.

Anchor Chain Joining Links:

Size: 12.5mm to 152mm (varies by application)

Grade: Grade 2, Grade 3, or higher (depends on strength requirements)

Material: High-tensile steel, often galvanized for corrosion resistance

Breaking Load: Varies by size and grade (e.g., 12.5mm Grade 2 ~ 6.5 tons, 76mm Grade 3 ~ 1,500 tons)

Buoyancy: Negligible due to steel density

Anchor Chains:

Size: 12.5mm to 152mm (common marine sizes)

Grade: Grade 2, Grade 3, or higher (e.g., U3, R3, R4, R5 for offshore use)

Material: High-tensile steel, often hot-dip galvanized

Viscosity: N/A (solid steel construction)

Buoyancy: Sinks in water (steel density ~7.85 g/cm³)

Common Lengths: 27.5m shots (standard for marine use)

Proof Load: 50-70% of breaking load (depends on certification)

Corrosion Resistance: Enhanced by galvanization or special coatings
