Chain Stopper

The chain stopper is an essential part of a ship’s anchoring system; it grips the anchor chain and spares the windlass from excessive forces when the vessel is held fast. Built for toughness, the device acts as a positive stop, preventing chain creep and shielding the windlass from shock loads in heavy seas.

Boomarine’s chain stoppers are built to global maritime rules like JIS F2015-87, DIN and ISO, and each piece carries classification society approval from ABS, BV, DNV, LR and CCS. Offered in bar, roller and pawl styles, they fit commercial ships, offshore platforms and naval vessels alike.
