- Load figures: Compare the 956 lb recommended maximum working load with the demands of your application. Do not treat the 4543 lb breaking strength as the working-load recommendation.
- End connection: Check that the included thimble and shackle suit the connection you need.
Compatibility, Size and Fit
The description recommends this line for boats under 30 feet and advises careful selection for larger boats. Boat length alone does not establish that the line is suitable for every boat or anchoring setup, so check the stated working load and connection requirements as well.
Safe Use and Important Precautions
The stated breaking strength is 4543 lb, while the recommended maximum working load is 956 lb. These figures are not interchangeable. Consider the working-load limit when evaluating the line, and confirm that the complete setup is appropriate for the intended use.
Before You Decide
Confirm the 100 ft length, 1/2-inch diameter, end hardware, and 956 lb recommended maximum working load against your boat and setup. The stated recommendation is for boats under 30 feet.
