This is a quality, high grade, marine stainless steel (AISI 316) DIN766 chain suitable for use in a windlass as anchor chain or other marine applications where high corrosion resistance is desired. Superb for anchor chain and general heavy duty work in a marine or chemically harsh environment. This chain will fit many standard windlasses. Please consult your windlass manufacturer model manual for the ideal specification for your windlass. The 3 important figures for smooth running or your windlass is the Diameter (DIA), Inside Length (IL) and Outside Width (OW). More details are in the spec table below, this chain is 8*24*27.5 (DIA*IL*OW). As DIN766 is a metric specification we list the specs in mm, the imperial equivalent of this chain is 5/16"*0.95"*1.08".
The link size is 8mm or 5/16" imperial equivalent. Every 3 feet links are hallmarked and stamped with 316.

Item will ship via USPS. For very long chain lengths, shipping maybe via Fedex. For lengths greater than 60 feet a business address is required rather than a home address, due to Fedex's weight limit of 70lbs to a home address.
See my other listings to save on shipping...after the first item with a shipping and handling charge, additional items (except free of course) are charged a reduced rate for shipping and handling.
