J-Type Chain Chaser

J-Type Chain Chaser – Reliable Anchor Recovery for Marine Operations

Overview:
The J-Type Chain Chaser is a robust and certified marine tool designed to efficiently recover lost anchors from the seabed when they become detached from buoys or vessels. Engineered for durability and performance, it ensures safe and effective retrieval in challenging underwater conditions.

How It Works:

Connected via wire rope to an anchor-handling tug’s winch, the chain chaser is deployed to approximately one-third of the water depth.
It “snags” the anchor chain, guiding it into secure contact with the anchor shank and flukes.
Once engaged, the tug can smoothly lift and retrieve the anchor, even in heavy-duty conditions.

Key Features:

High Load Capacity: Handles anchors up to 30 tonnes and stud link chains up to 4½ inches in diameter.
Durable Construction: Made from high-grade casting steel for long-lasting performance in harsh marine environments.
Corrosion Protection: Coated with black bitumen paint for enhanced resistance to seawater corrosion.
Certified & Trusted: Compliant with leading marine standards, including CCS, ABS, BV, LR, NK, RINA, and more.
