What Are Safety Chains?
Safety chains serve as a backup connection between a towing vehicle and a trailer (or towed load). Their primary purpose is to prevent complete separation in case the primary hitch fails. If a trailer detaches from the tow vehicle, properly secured safety chains will keep it from rolling away uncontrollably, reducing the risk of accidents.
Key Features of Safety Chains:
✔ Secondary Attachment: Acts as a failsafe if the hitch or coupler fails.
✔ Secure Anchor Points: Must be attached to reinforced mounting points on both the towing vehicle and trailer.
✔ Proper Length & Slack: Should allow for turns without dragging but not be so loose that they snag.
Without safety chains, a sudden hitch failure could lead to disastrous consequences, including loss of cargo, vehicle damage, or even fatal collisions.
What Is Grade 43 Chain?
Not all chains are created equal. Grade 43 chain, also known as high-test transport chain, is specifically engineered for towing, hauling, and cargo securement.
Why Choose Grade 43?
✔ High Tensile Strength: Made from heat-treated carbon steel for maximum durability.
✔ DOT & CSVA Compliant: Meets strict Department of Transportation (DOT) and Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) standards.
✔ Working Load Limit: Designed to handle heavy loads safely (e.g., 5/16" chain has a 3,333 lbs WLL, 3/8" chain has a 5,400 lbs WLL).
✔ Note: The working load limit is only 1/3 of the breaking strength—never exceed the WLL to avoid chain failure.
