WASI Duplex Anchor-Chain, DIN 766

Duplex - permanently seawater resistant.

WASI anchor chains made of duplex offer highest safety due to a very high breaking load. They show a significant saving in weight compared to normal stainless steel anchor chains, since a smaller chain diameter can be used for the same breaking load.

Moreover the high chromium content of the WASI anchor chains made of duplex have an extremely good corrosion resistance, especially against pitting corrosion. Due to the high PREN value of 33-35, the chains are permanently resistant to seawater, even at high water temperatures up to 30°C. Duplex also has high strength values and high toughness values and also a great resistance to frictional wear.

In addition to their high corrosion resistance, Duplex steels also require less maintenance. Duplex therefore has some significant advantages in direct comparison with A4
