T&T: anchor chain

[Rudy and Jill Sechez]

Morning Michael-

I've always had good luck buying chain from industrial supply stores/hardware places. When looking, I puruse the yellow pages and price shop.

Just in case your not aware:

Most all chain meets minimum requirements, including strength, length and width, but ask for this information on the specific chain you want to buy first, just in case it is an off, off brand.

Domestic made chain is usually better galvanized, than is foreign, probably because domestic must meet standards that do not allow for less thickness of the galvanizing, as does foreign.

At two hundred feet, you may want to ask on drum or keg prices. In larger bulk purchases, you may get the same amount of chain for the same price as a two hundred foot cut price.

Hope this helps.
