The Baldt Detachable Chain Connecting Link eliminated connecting shackles. However, the connection between the chain and the large anchor shackle still had to be made by use of a large, weak, end or "bending" shackle, which was easily caught on the lip of the hawse pipe, spread and caused loss of a valuable anchor.
Baldt developed a detachable (Pear Shaped) Anchor C.
Baldt Detachable Anchor Connecting Link, as pictured, consists of a "C" link with two fixing caps. A stainless steel tapered pin and a plug are provided to positively lock the caps with the "C" link. It is possible to disassemble the link by removing the tapered pin by use of a drift sledge.
Please note that dimensions and weights are nominal and small variations are reserved.
