Chain on anchor refers to the heavy-duty metal links connected to an anchor for maritime use. Anchor chains provide strength and durability to secure vessels in place. They are essential for maintaining stability and preventing drift in various water conditions.

Chain On Anchor and Anchor Chains typically come in various sizes, ranging from 10 mm to 130 mm in diameter. The grade of anchor chains is commonly classified as Grade 2, Grade 3, or Grade 4, with higher grades offering greater tensile strength. Viscosity is not a relevant property for anchor chains, as they are solid metal components. Buoyancy is negligible due to the high density of the materials used. Anchor chains are primarily made of high-strength carbon steel or alloy steel, often galvanized or coated for corrosion resistance. The breaking load varies by size and grade, with larger diameters and higher grades supporting heavier loads.
