Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at a Class IV trailer safely chain. The Class IV safety chain is rated to 10,000 lbs. the chain is made from carbon steel, and it's zinc plated to withstand rust and corrosion. This chain measures 35 inches long, and it features a forged slip-hook connection here on one end. Now, this has a spring-loaded safety latch mechanism to prevent accidental disconnecting. The chain is designed for towing only, so it's not designed for lifting.
The chain diameter is 3/8 of an inch, again, the chain length is 35 inches.When it comes to this slip-hook you definitely want to make sure it's going to fit your connection point, and so with the latch all the way open, the space right here measures about 1 1/8 of an inch when it comes to that opening. The hook itself, measuring the thickness edge to edge right here, is 3/4 of an inch. And then going this direction, so inside edge to outside edge in a straight line, that's an inch and a quarter. And then again, the maximum gross trailer weight capacity for this chain I 10,000 lbs.That's gonna do it for today's look at the Class IV trailer safety chain.

These safety chains are the real deal
Bought these for a friend and he ordered another set for his other trailer
Chains worked great on our trailer. Already installed and ready to use.
Bought this to replace a lighter chain that broke when "someone" didn't latch the 16' trailer's hitch properly. I haven't tried out the breaking strength, but it's heavy duty and the hooks still fit through my hitch.
Great upgrade from the light chains that were originally on my Gator trailer. Super strong and nice coating.
Very substantial chains, probably overkill for my 7 x 14 aluminum cargo trailer. Snap hooks are equally robust.
Product was perfect, price was fair and delivery was quicker than expected. Better than taking the camper back to have it fixed by dealer for free.
As described. Etrailer provided a solid description which was key in planning my application.
Works as it should. Solid and just what I needed.
UPS lost some of the order and MicheleB. in customer service immediately shipped replacements at no charge. Awesome!
Meets my needs for my equipment trailer. Delivered when advertised by my local UPS driver.
