🔍 Key Concepts

• Anchor chain construction and how links are built for strength • The purpose of a stud across the center of a chain link • Differences between special links used to join shots of chain (like detachable/Kenter) and the regular link pattern

💭 Think About

• First, ask yourself: which of these is a normal feature found on every link in the working part of an anchor chain, rather than a special connector used only between lengths? • Think about what physical change to the shape of a link would both resist deformation under heavy load and help keep links from turning and kinking. • Consider which term is commonly used to describe the standard type of heavy ship’s anchor chain seen in photographs or on board large vessels.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices are special joining pieces between shots of chain versus a link type used throughout the chain. • Verify which link type has a bar (stud) across the middle of the link to prevent it from stretching and twisting. • Make sure the option you pick is known for preventing kinking and increasing strength, not just for allowing chain to be taken apart or reconnected.
