Galvanized Anchor Chain Connecting Link – for 6-12 mm Chain
This galvanized chain connecting link is designed to provide a strong coupling between two sections of an anchor chain or for attaching an anchor to a chain. It is made of high-strength steel with a hot-dip galvanized coating, ensuring long-lasting corrosion resistance even with continuous exposure to saltwater. The link’s compact and smooth profile allows it to fit well within windlass gypsies or rollers (when correctly sized), facilitating seamless integration into your anchoring system. It is an indispensable accessory for emergency situations – for instance, if your chain breaks or you need to add extra length quickly. The connecting link retains a high percentage of the chain’s original strength and provides peace of mind during anchoring and mooring operations.
Recommended Usage & Sizing:
- For 6 mm chain: Ideal for small boats (up to approximately 5–6 m in length) that use 6 mm anchor chain. Perfect for lighter anchors and shallow anchoring, where quick chain repairs or extensions might be needed.
- For 8 mm chain: Recommended for medium-sized vessels (around 6–8 m) equipped with 8 mm chains. Provides a secure connection for heavier anchors and moderate anchoring conditions.
- For 10 mm chain: Suitable for larger boats and small yachts (8–10 m) using 10 mm anchor chain. Ensures a robust join capable of handling greater loads in windy or choppy conditions.
- For 12 mm chain: Intended for even bigger, heavier boats (beyond 10 m) that rely on 12 mm chains. This link withstands substantial forces, making it ideal when maximum strength and safety in the anchoring system are required.
The connecting link is user-friendly – it can be assembled on site without specialized tools (depending on the design, a hammer or pliers might be used to secure it). Once properly installed, it provides a dependable connection resistant to shock and tension. Whether you are extending your anchor rode for better scope or urgently fixing a broken chain, this galvanized connecting link ensures your anchor remains firmly attached and your vessel stays put securely.
