🔍 Key Concepts

• Construction and purpose of a detachable link in anchor chain • Difference between parts that hold the link together vs. parts that cover or fill holes • How loads are actually transferred through a detachable link when the chain is under strain

💭 Think About

• When the anchor chain is under heavy load, which part of the detachable link is actually bearing and transmitting the tension between shots? • Look at each choice and decide: is this mainly a filler, a cover, a locking device, or the main structural connector? • Think about which component, if removed, would completely separate the two shots and destroy the load path.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is the primary structural element of the detachable link, not just a securing or locking part • Verify in a diagram of a detachable link which part directly connects to the adjacent chain links under tension • Distinguish between locking/retaining hardware and the main connecting piece that carries the load
