	*MARQUIP tow plate* *Towing Plates that are simpler, stronger, and safer!*
Its patented design lets you rig the bridle with only three shackles, eliminating the extra cost, weight, time and risk of older-style flounder plates. The No. 2 Tow plate features an extra hole for a tandem shackle to tow additional barges, or to haul in the bridle. Cast from nickel-chrome steel, MARQUIP plates also provide maximum corrosion resistance. They are available in 300,000#, 500,000# and 1,000,000# pull test capacities, WITH WEIGHTS OF 70 LBS, 190 LBS, AND 560 LBS, and can be certified upon request.

forged detachable chain connecting links
replace bulky shackles and end links. They make better-than-original repair or replacement links, they serve as connecting links for 90' shots of chain and they ride through hawse pipes and over wildcats as smoothly as normal chain. made of alloy steel, heat-treated to tensile strength of approximately 150,000 PSI, they're as strong as or stronger than the chain links. The positive-lock assembly consists of a stainless steel pin and lead plug; the break tests surpass USN and ABS requirements. Additional certifications are available upon request. Links are available in sizes up to 3-1/2". Cast links are also available, in sizes up to 4-3/4".
