CHAIN COPPER 21 LINKS PER INCH
MS0480
Item Number: MS0480
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.
