1 Link Splice - a crown splice formed around the last link of the chain

Splicing Compatibility - the maximum diameter of rope that will splice successfully into a given chain calibration is limited by the amount of rope fibres that the chain link(s) will accommodate and still allow a degree of articulation in the joint:

• 10mm Anchorplait - 6mm and 7mm Chain
• 12mm Anchorplait - 7mm and 8mm chain
• 14mm Anchorpalit - 8mm and 10mm chain
• 16mm Anchorplait - 8mm and 10mm chain
• 18mm Anchorplait - 10mm Chain
• 20mm Anchorplait - 12mm Chain
• 24mm Anchorplait - 12mm chain

N.B. We do splice 16mm 3 strand Polyester into 8mm Chain, but please be aware that it is a tight fit in the link.

Please bear in mind that while it is possible to splice 3 Strand Polyester into Grade 70 chain, the break load of the rope will not match that of the chain.
