Chains
Marine Chains
The critical link in a vessel's anchoring, mooring, and towing systems. Kailipu supplies stud link and plain link marine chains in Grade 43, Grade 70, and Grade 80, covering anchor, mooring, towing, lashing, and buoy applications, so a marine outfitting buyer can source the full chain system from one supplier without splitting orders across multiple manufacturers.

Who It Is For
Buyers Who Specify Marine Chains
- Marine and offshore contractors outfitting ships, platforms, and floating structures with complete chain systems
- Shipyards and repair yards needing Grade 70 and Grade 80 chains for newbuild and maintenance work
- Towing and salvage companies requiring high-strength lashing and towing chains for dynamic operations
- Port and terminal operators managing mooring and berthing systems with long-term chain exposure
- Marine equipment suppliers building integrated mooring kits and anchor packages for resale
- Classification society surveyors verifying chain compliance during vessel inspections
Problems Solved
What Marine Chains Solve on the Job
- A vessel’s mooring system fails because the chain grade does not match the design load, leading to a safety incident at sea
- Towing operations are delayed because the lashing chain lacks the required strength for the load and dynamic forces
- An anchor chain breaks during deployment due to a lack of proof load testing and material traceability
- A marine contractor cannot get a full chain system from one supplier, forcing them to source anchor chain from one factory and mooring chain from another
- No Material Test Certificate is available, so the chain cannot be signed into a vessel’s safety register or classification society file
- The chain finish does not suit the environment—electro-galvanised on a coastal vessel, or plain steel in saltwater exposure

Answers
Marine Chains FAQ
What grades are available for marine chains?
Grade 43, Grade 70, and Grade 80 are available. Grade 43 is for general service, Grade 70 for high-load mooring, and Grade 80 for offshore anchor applications. Each grade is tested to meet the required strength and safety standards.
Are your marine chains tested before shipment?
Yes. Every batch undergoes proof load testing, dimensional tolerance checking, and breaking strength validation. Records are kept and available for inspection. A Material Test Certificate to EN 10204 3.1 is issued on request.
What is the difference between stud link and plain link chains?
Stud link chains have a protrusion on each link that increases strength and wear resistance, making them ideal for anchor and mooring use. Plain link chains are used for lashing and towing where high strength is needed but stud wear is not a concern.
Do you supply Material Test Certificates?
Yes. A Material Test Certificate to EN 10204 3.1 is issued with each batch on request. It includes material composition, mechanical properties, and test results for proof load and breaking strength.
Can you custom stamp tonnage and branding?
Yes. Custom tonnage stamping, private label marking, and OEM branding are standard. Send the marking layout and pack format, and we will apply it during production.
What finish options are available?
Hot dip galvanised for marine and outdoor use, electro-galvanised for indoor or dry environments, and plain steel for applications where coating is added later. Powder coating and electrophoretic black are also available on request.
What is the smallest order you accept?
We accept small top-up orders as part of a mixed rigging order. The point of buying from Kailipu is to consolidate your entire chain system from one supplier, so we do not require container loads or minimum quantities.
