Electro galvanised anchor chains are widely used as vital connectors in marine engineering, port facilities and fishing equipment. According to DIN766 standard, Electro Galvanised Anchor Chain has strict requirements in design, manufacture and performance to ensure its reliability and durability in various environments.
The surface treatment process of electro galvanised anchor chain is a key guarantee of its performance. Anchor chains are made from high strength carbon or alloy steel to ensure adequate tensile strength and durability. Before zinc plating, the substrate needs to undergo strict surface pretreatment, including cleaning, pickling and phosphating steps, to remove surface oil, rust and impurities, and improve the adhesion of the plating layer.
Through electrochemical reaction, a zinc layer is uniformly plated on the surface of the anchor chain.The thickness of Alastin Marine zinc layer is generally 5-8 microns, which has good corrosion protection properties.cThe thickness of spotio proprties The zinc plating process can effectively prevent the anchor chain from rusting and corroding in harsh environments such as humidity and salt spray.
Electro-galvanised anchor chains are designed and manufactured so that they can be adapted to a wide range of complex environments and are particularly suited to the following scenarios: Salt spray, humidity and corrosive substances in seawater have a strong corrosive effect on metal materials. Electro-galvanised anchor chains are resistant to salt spray and moisture through the sacrificial protection provided by the zinc layer and are suitable for use in offshore engineering, fishing vessels and harbour facilities. In rain, snow, humidity or dusty environment, the zinc layer of electro galvanised anchor chain can provide long term protection and prolong the service life of the product.
The way in which an electro galvanised anchor chain is used has a direct impact on its performance and safety. The anchor chain should be used with standard connecting parts (such as shackle, chain ring, etc.) to ensure the strength and reliability of the overall structure. During use, the appearance and performance of the anchor chain should be checked regularly, especially whether the zinc layer is intact. If corrosion, wear or breakage is found, it should be replaced or repaired in time.
When not in use, the anchor chain should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment to avoid the influence of moisture and corrosive gases. Protect it by applying antirust oil if necessary.
