Jimmy Green Combination Anchor Warps, Anchor rope spliced to chain

Select a finish for the bitter end of your warp - this is optional and can be left untouched if you are happy with a cut end to the rope for you to finish yourself

Consider how you are going to attach the warp on deck or in your chain locker.
This will depend on whether the strongpoint e.g. cleat, U bolt, eye plate will be used to take the full strain of the rode or only to prevent accidental loss overboard:

For 3 strand there is only one splice option, but for Anchorplait there is a choice of splice - a long (11 link) splice or a shorter 1 link splice
The 11 link splice is not recommended by some windlass manufacturers for use on a rope/chain gypsy
The break load is slightly greater on the 1 link splice than the 11 link splice but the critical strands around the end link should be scrutinised regularly for signs of chafe.
The 11 link splice should also be regularly visually scanned for wear along all the interwoven strands including the whipped ends

Select your preferred chain and enter your required length (unless your option is a fixed length)
There are several options on chain calibration and manufacturer in the larger sizes

Jimmy Green Rigging Team Whipping Advisory

If you don't need a splice, a whipping is advisable to prevent the end from unravelling and to maintain the integrity of the rope construction.

We offer a heat sealing option which melts and moulds the end of the rope, and the additional option of a heat shrink band to keep the end of the line bound together.
However, these are only temporary solutions, and a proper whipping is always recommended to guarantee the integrity of the line.

Of course, we understand that you may wish to apply the finishing touch yourself, and we sell all the Fids, Tools and Whipping Twines to add to your onboard service kit.
