This assembly combines 250’ of 1\/2\" 8-plait nylon with a 50’ chain lead — giving you the scope to anchor safely in deeper water while keeping the overall weight lighter than the 5\/8\" series. The 8-plait construction lays flat and feeds smoothly through a windlass gypsy without kinking or hockling.

The 250’ of line gives you a safe 7:1 scope ratio in up to 35’ of water, and the 50’ chain lead provides solid catenary effect and bottom protection across most anchoring conditions. The 8-plait braid is the key feature for windlass users — it feeds consistently through the gypsy and lays flat in the chain locker without the twisting that 3-strand can develop. If 150’ of scope is sufficient for your typical anchoring depth, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/titan-8-plait-anchor-rode-half-inch-150ft-line-quarter-inch-50ft-chain-491-car8p12150h1450\"\u003eTitan 8-Plait 1\/2\" x 150’ with 50’ Chain (CAR8P12150H1450)\u003c\/a\u003e is a lighter, less expensive option.
