KENTER LINK / SHACKLE
Kenter link also know as kenter shackle or lugless joining shackle. It is a type of link specifically uses in marine applications, particularly for connecting anchor chains. It is design to join two lengths of chain together while maintaining the strength and integrity of the connection. Kenter links are commonly uses in ship mooring systems, offshore platforms, and other maritime operations.

NOTE:
It’s crucial to follow proper procedures, guidelines, and safety protocols when using Kenter links. And ensuring the integrity of the anchor chain connection and overall safety during maritime operations.
SOME KEY FEATURES OF A KENTER LINK
1. Purpose: The primary purpose of a Kenter shackle is to connect two lengths of anchor chain together to form a continuous chain. It is typically use when deploying or retrieving anchors on ships or offshore structures.
2. Design: Kenter shackles consist of two separate parts: the “male” and “female” end. The male end has a large, curved pin, while the female end has a corresponding hole or socket to receive the pin. When connect, the pin passes through the hole, securing the two lengths of chain together.
3. Strength and Load Capacity: Kenter shackles are engineer to withstand heavy loads and high tensile forces. They are design to maintain the strength and integrity of the anchor chain connection, ensuring reliable and secure anchoring.
4. Material: Kenter shackles are typically made of high-strength steel. Such as alloy steel or stainless steel, to provide durability and resistance to corrosion in marine environments.
5. Installation and Removal: Kenter shackles require proper alignment and secure attachment to ensure a strong connection. Special tools or machinery may be use to assist with the installation and removal of Kenter shackles.
6. Certification and Standards: Kenter shackles uses in marine applications are often subject to classification society rules and standards. These standards ensure the quality, strength, and performance of the shackles for safe maritime operations.
