Anchor Chain Reading refers to the process of measuring and recording the length of anchor chain deployed when anchoring a vessel. Anchor chains are heavy-duty chains used to connect the anchor to the ship, providing strength and weight to secure the vessel. Proper chain management ensures stability and safety during anchoring operations.
Anchor Chain Size: Typically ranges from 10 mm to 150 mm in diameter.
Anchor Chain Grade: Common grades include Grade 2, Grade 3, and High-Tensile (HT) chains like Grade 30, Grade 40, and Grade 70.
Viscosity: Not applicable to anchor chains; viscosity is a fluid property.
Buoyancy: Anchor chains are negatively buoyant, made of steel with a density of ~7.85 g/cm³.
Material: Typically forged from high-strength carbon steel or alloy steel.
Breaking Load: Varies by grade and size, e.g., Grade 3 chains have higher breaking loads than Grade 2.
Proof Load: Typically 50-70% of the breaking load, depending on grade.
Corrosion Resistance: Often galvanized or coated for marine environments.
Chain Link Type: Common types include studlink (studded) and studless chains.
Weight per Meter: Depends on size and material, e.g., 10 mm chain weighs ~2.2 kg/m, while 150 mm can exceed 300 kg/m.
