Size: Typically ranges from 12.5 mm to 152 mm in diameter.
Grade: Common grades include Grade 2, Grade 3, and U3, with higher grades offering greater strength.
Viscosity: Not applicable, as anchor chains are solid metal components.
Buoyancy: Negative buoyancy due to high-density steel material.
Material: Usually made of high-tensile steel, often galvanized for corrosion resistance.
Breaking Load: Varies by size and grade, e.g., 12.5 mm chain may have ~47 kN, while 152 mm can exceed 15,000 kN.
Proof Load: Typically 50-70% of the breaking load, depending on grade.
Weight: Approximately 2-300 kg/m, depending on diameter and material.
Finish: Hot-dip galvanized or painted for corrosion protection.
Standards: Complies with ISO 1704, DIN 766, or other maritime regulations.
