I'm currently using 5/16 anchor chain on my boat and would like to add an additional 20 feet of chain utilizing the twin Clevis link. Would this Clevis link work with a windlass? I have also looked at the possibility of using the Crosby 5/16 missing link, I read so many pros/cons about this link and its holding strength. Can you set the store straight about this type of link, is it a wish choice to use. Also, it would be very helpful if you Could recommend any other possible option that I may use to connect the chain.

Hi Greg,

Unfortunately this coupler link is not intended for use with a windlass system. I would check with a company like West Marine that specialized in such products. In the event you need new windlass chain, we do have a high-quality USA product here.
