Size: 1 4 Anchor Chain typically refers to a chain with a nominal diameter of 1.25 inches (32 mm).
Grade: Common grades include Grade 2, Grade 3, and High-Test (Grade 30), with varying tensile strengths.
Viscosity: Not applicable to anchor chains as viscosity is a fluid property.
Buoyancy: Anchor chains are negatively buoyant, typically made of steel, which sinks in water.
Material: Usually constructed from high-strength carbon steel or alloy steel, often galvanized for corrosion resistance.
Weight: Approximate weight for 1 4 Anchor Chain is 7.7 lbs per foot (11.4 kg/m).
Tensile Strength: Varies by grade; Grade 2 (~70,000 psi), Grade 3 (~90,000 psi), High-Test (~120,000 psi).
Finish: Hot-dip galvanized or uncoated, depending on application.
Common Standards: Meets ABS, DNV, or other maritime classification society requirements.
