Anchor chain chain maintenance

Anchor chain steel requires high-performance green steel plates that can meet the requirements of new standards in the shipbuilding industry. Anchor chain steel used in large bulk carriers, container ships, oil tankers and offshore vessels, for example, the current proportion of high-strength plate (A32-A36) used in bulk carriers, container ships, high-strength plate used in oil tankers is more than 60 per cent of the proportion of about 30 per cent. So do you know how to maintain the anchor chain? Today we will discuss with you.

Maintenance of anchor chain chain:

1, anchor chain chain tension should be appropriate, too tight to increase power consumption, bearing easy to wear; too loose chain easy to jump and off the chain.

2, anchor chain chain is too long or elongated after use, it is difficult to adjust, you can remove the chain link depending on the situation, but it must be an even number. The chain links should be passed from the back of the chain, the locking piece should be inserted outside, and the opening of the locking piece should be in the opposite direction of rotation.

3、After the anchor chain chain is badly worn, new sprocket and new chain should be replaced at the same time to ensure good meshing. You can't just replace the new chain or new sprocket alone.

4、Anchor chain chain can not be mixed with part of the new chain on the old chain, otherwise it is easy to produce impact in the transmission and pull off the chain.

The above is the anchor chain chain maintenance and attention to several aspects, I hope the majority of users can pay attention to.
