On April 2, 1909, Hingley & Sons started to make the giant anchor chains of the RMS Titanic. It was an incredibly complex project that required precision and craftsmanship. The chains were made out of 67 tons of malleable iron and were over 600 feet long. Every link of the chain was individually cast and tested in order to ensure that it was of the highest quality.

It took over six months for Hingley & Sons to complete the chains for the Titanic. The chains were then shipped to Belfast, where they were installed onto the Titanic. The chains were so strong and durable that they were able to withstand the immense pressure of the sinking ship.

It is truly remarkable how much work and care went into making the Titanic’s anchor chain. It is a testament to the hard work of the workers at Hingley & Sons, who worked tirelessly to create this incredible piece of engineering.
