Questions & Answers
What does "Calibrated" mean?
Calibration ensures that every link is identical in size within extremely tight tolerances. This is essential for windlasses, as non-calibrated chain will jam or slip in the gypsy.
Will this fit both ISO and DIN windlasses?
Yes. For the 6mm size, Lofrans produces a dual-standard chain that meets the requirements of both ISO 4565 and DIN 766, making it highly versatile.
Is this chain suitable for saltwater use?
Absolutely. It is hot-dip galvanized, a process that provides a much thicker and more durable protective layer compared to standard electro-galvanizing, specifically for harsh marine environments.
