It combines 300 feet of 1\/2 inch 8-plait nylon rode with 15 feet of 1\/4 inch G4 chain, joined and finished with a shackle so it is ready to connect directly to the anchor. The 8-plait (8-strand square braid) nylon construction is a favored choice for anchor rodes because it resists hockling and kinking, coils cleanly into an anchor locker, and retains strength while providing the elasticity needed to absorb shock loads from wave and wind action at anchor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe integrated chain section adds catenary weight near the anchor, helping the anchor set at a lower angle of pull and improving holding power, while also protecting the rode from abrasion on rocky or coral bottoms. The shackle included with this rode allows it to be connected to the anchor without additional hardware. This rode and chain combination is intended for boaters who need a long-length, high-strength ground tackle setup and want the chain-to-rode splice done to a consistent factory standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lewmar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e HM15HT300PX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anchor Rode with Chain and Shackle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRode Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8-Plait (8-Strand Braid)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRode Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRode Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRode Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e G4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShackle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardware Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 33.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 743683406461\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with the Lewmar HM15HT300PX?\u003c\/strong\u003e This package includes 300 feet of 1\/2 inch 8-plait nylon anchor rode spliced to 15 feet of 1\/4 inch G4 chain, with a shackle attached so it connects directly to an anchor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat type of rope construction is used on this anchor rode?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is an 8-plait (8-strand square braid) nylon rode, a construction chosen for anchor rodes because it resists hockling and kinking and coils cleanly for anchor locker storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does this anchor rode include a length of chain?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 15 feet of 1\/4 inch G4 chain on the HM15HT300PX adds weight near the anchor, which helps the anchor set at a lower angle of pull for better holding power, and it protects the rode from abrasion on the seabed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the rode made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The rode portion of the HM15HT300PX is nylon, which provides elasticity to absorb shock loads while at anchor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the HM15HT300PX come with a shackle?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, a shackle is included with the Lewmar HM15HT300PX so the rode and chain assembly can be connected to the anchor without sourcing separate hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does this anchor rode and chain assembly weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar HM15HT300PX weighs 33.1 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the diameter of the rode and the chain on this product?\u003c\/strong\u003e The rode is 1\/2 inch in diameter and the attached chain is 1\/4 inch, both part of the HM15HT300PX assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the shackle and other hardware on this rode made of stainless steel?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the hardware on the HM15HT300PX, including the shackle, is stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the chain joined to the rode on the HM15HT300PX?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 15 feet of 1\/4 inch G4 chain is spliced to the 300 feet of 1\/2 inch 8-plait nylon rode as a single ready-to-use assembly, finished with a shackle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat length options does this Lewmar rode come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e This listing, HM15HT300PX, is the 300 foot rode length paired with 15 feet of chain; Lewmar also offers this rode and chain style in other length combinations as separate part numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lewmar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025135214811,"sku":"LEW-HM15HT300PX","price":836.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/11bhNAicL8L.jpg?v=1785331091","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/lewmar-8-plait-anchor-rode-1-2-inch-x-300-feet-with-15-feet-1-4-inch-g4-chain-and-shackle-hm15ht300px","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
