Lewmar Anchor Chain Stopper

Windlasses are not designed to hold the high load while a boat is at anchor.

When the windlass is not in use and the boat is at anchor, the chain should either be secured using a chain stopper or should be attached to a load-bearing point such as a cleat via the rope rode.

Lewmar designed and manufactured chain stoppers from 316 stainless steel - take the strain off your windlass.

The 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 mm chain stoppers have a Safe Working Load (SWL) that is greater than the SWL of the chain.
