🔍 Key Concepts

• Anchor chain inspection methods, especially using a hammer to "sound" links • Difference between normal ring (clear) tone and dull/flat tone when striking metal • What conditions in a chain link (e.g., cracks, internal defects, distortion) might change the sound it makes

💭 Think About

• When you strike a healthy, solid steel link with a hammer, what kind of sound would you normally expect? Clear or dull? • What might cause a chain link to lose its normal resonance: light surface rust, or something more serious inside/through the metal? • Which answer choices describe a condition that would need you to stop and examine that link more closely before accepting it for continued service?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare what a good link should sound like versus a defective or cracked link • Decide whether surface rust alone usually changes the tone enough to be used as a diagnostic tool • Identify which option clearly indicates a condition that calls for additional examination or testing rather than immediate acceptance
