Using a snubber is always
recommended when deploying
an all-chain rode. Snubbers
act as shock absorbers
between rode and vessel,
while at the same time
transferring surge loading
caused by wind and waves
from the windlass to a deck
cleat. No windlass is built
to bear the load of a
deployed anchor,
particularly the
bone-jarring snatches of an
all-chain rode fetching up
short.
Manufactured in Europe, the
Ultra Chain Grab, Rope and
Snubber kit is a unique
design that allows it to be
easily attached or removed
from a taut chain rode.
Handmade from 316 stainless
steel, the chain grab
ensures an even load is
dispersed over the chain
link attached and does not
weaken or stretch the link.
Likewise, the specially
formulated rubber snubber
absorbs the shock, relieving
stress on the anchor rode
and windlass and prolonging
the life of your anchor
winch.
Another common problem
encountered with an
all-chain rode is the
frustrating noise of
constant chain whip while at
anchor. Rest assured the
Ultra Chain Grab, Rope and
Snubber absorbs this load,
allowing you and your
neighbour an uninterrupted
nights sleep! |
