The G70 Anchor Chain specifications and technical properties are as follows:
Size: Typically ranges from 13mm to 152mm (1/2" to 6") in diameter.
Grade: Grade G70 (High-strength carbon steel chain).
Viscosity: Not applicable (N/A) as chains are solid metal.
Buoyancy: Negative buoyancy (sinks in water due to high-density steel).
Material: High-tensile carbon steel, often galvanized for corrosion resistance.
Breaking Load: Varies by size (e.g., 13mm chain ≈ 114 kN, 152mm chain ≈ 15,700 kN).
Proof Load: Typically 50% of breaking load.
Work Load Limit: Approximately 1/3 of breaking load.
Finish: Hot-dip galvanized or self-colored (ungalvanized).
Standards: Complies with ABS, DNV, LR, or other maritime classification societies.
