The anchor chain to rope connection links the heavy-duty metal chain to a synthetic rope, providing flexibility and strength. Anchor chains are robust steel links designed to withstand marine environments and anchor loads. This combination ensures secure mooring while reducing weight and cost compared to all-chain setups.

Anchor Chain To Rope Connection:

- Size: Typically 12mm to 76mm diameter

- Grade: Grade 2, Grade 3, or higher for high-strength applications

- Material: Forged steel, stainless steel, or galvanized steel

- Connection Type: Swivel, shackle, or splice

- Breaking Load: Varies by size and grade (e.g., 12mm chain: ~8-12 tons)

- Corrosion Resistance: Galvanized or coated for marine environments

Anchor Chains:

- Size: 10mm to 150mm diameter (common marine sizes: 12mm-76mm)

- Grade: Grade 2 (mild steel), Grade 3 (high-tensile), or higher (e.g., G4, G7)

- Material: Carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel

- Viscosity: N/A (solid metal)

- Buoyancy: Negative (sinks in water due to high density)

- Weight: ~2-60 kg/m (varies by size and grade)

- Breaking Load: 5-3,000+ tons (depends on size and grade)

- Corrosion Resistance: Hot-dip galvanized or painted for protection
