Video Transcript for Review of Durabilt Chain Tie Downs - Transport Chain - DU47MR

Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the 14 foot long Durabilt transport chain with the grab hooks. Has a 6,600 pound working load limit. Now, this transport chain is for tie-down, binding, towing and construction use. It'll let you secure heavy loads for transport, and it's ideal for vehicle hauling and towing.

Now, grade 70 transport chains are not designed to be used for overhead lifting. And a grade 70 chain is heat-treated carbon steel, which is very durable. And you can see it has a nice yellow zinc plating to resist corrosion. On this chain, on each end, you can see it has the 3/8 inch size grab hooks that make it very easy to connect to anchor points. And this chain is manufactured to NACM, CCMTA, and Department of Transportation requirements.

Few specs again, the length we mentioned is 14 feet. The link thickness on these chain is 3/8 of an inch. And again, the safe working load limit is 6,600 pounds. And I do wanna mention, one note on the working load limit is tie-down chains like these must be chosen according to their safe working load limit. So basically, the weight of the secured cargo must not exceed the combined working load limit of your chains being used.

So, just to give you an example, if you're using chains that have a working load limit of 4,000 pounds each and you're tying down a load the weighs 8,000 pounds, then you're gonna need at least two chains to safely secure that load. And it is always recommended that you use chains in pairs. But that should do it for the review on the 14 foot long Durabilt transport chain with the grab books..
