MF Grade 40 Galvanised Chain

Jimmy Green MF Grade 40 Hot Dip Galvanised Calibrated Anchor Chain is sourced exclusively and directly from MF Catenificio Frigerio, a modern chain manufacturing plant in Italy.

MF Catenificio chain is manufactured, hot dip galvanised, hallmark stamped and proof tested in their modern research, test and production facility located near Lecco, Lake Como, Italy.

Grade 40 means a guaranteed tensile strength of 40kg/mm2.

The proof load testing process ensures that each weld has been completed successfully.

A Test Certificate is available for your specific length of chain on request.

MF Calibrated Anchor Chain features EN ISO 461 Regulated, MF Salt-Spray Tested Hot Dip Galvanising to a micron depth of  80 ± 10 µ.

Hot-dip galvanising anchor chain is a challenging process which involves immersing the chain in a molten zinc bath.

The molten zinc chemically reacts with the surface of the steel to create an iron-zinc alloy.

The result is a deep protective treatment to a minimum depth of 80 microns, regulated to the EN ISO 461 standard.

MF Galvanising provides long-lasting resistance to abrasion and corrosion.

MF Catenificio's hot dip galvanising performance is further guaranteed by the stringent application of their state-of-the-art Salt-Spray testing treatment. 

MF Catenificio Salt Spray Galvanisation Test

The MF Salt Spray Test, developed by the MF Laboratory Team and introduced in 2023, scrutinises the effectiveness and durability of the galvanising treatment.

The MF testing laboratory conducts a stringent examination of each batch of chain, exposing it to a concentrated salt solution for 24/48 hour cycles.

Salt Spray Testing simulates the real environmental conditions to which the chain will be exposed during its service life.

The results are governed by the MF Catenificio Frigerio UNI EN ISO 9001 certified quality system.

The entire MF chain manufacturing process has Lloyds Register approval to the ultimate ISO 9001 quality standard:

MF Lloyds Register approval to ISO 9001
