Item Number: MS0481
Made By: Model Shipways
COPPER CHAIN - 15 LINKS PER INCH - 1 FOOT LENGTH
Chain replaced rope anchor cable in the early 19th century. Soon it was used aboard warships and large merchantmen in place of certain types of standing rigging, such as guys, pendants and bobstays. By mid-century, it was also used on most square rigged vessels for topsail sheets.
Note: To blacken bright chain, use Blacken-it rather than paint. For longer lengths of chain, see our Bulk Fittings Section.
