Anchor rope and chain are essential marine components used to secure vessels in place. Anchor chains provide strength and durability, often connecting the anchor to the boat. Together, they ensure stability and safety while mooring or anchoring.

Size: 10 mm to 200 mm diameter

Grade: Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3, U1, U2, U3

Viscosity: Not applicable (N/A) for chains; ropes vary by material

Buoyancy: Chains are negatively buoyant; ropes vary by material (e.g., polypropylene floats)

Material: Chains - High-tensile steel, stainless steel; Ropes - Polyester, nylon, polypropylene, steel wire

Breaking Load: Varies by size and grade (e.g., 10 mm chain: ~8-12 tons)

Corrosion Resistance: Galvanized, painted, or stainless steel for chains; synthetic ropes resist corrosion

Elongation: Chains - minimal; synthetic ropes - 10-20% under load

Weight: Chains - 1-50 kg/m depending on size; ropes - lighter than chains

Standards: ISO 1704, DIN 766, ABS, Lloyd's Register certified
