What's up everybody it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out these virus products, safety chain hook, and this is going to be replacing our old rusty one on our trailer you see it's seen better days and we kind of want to upgrade the one with the latch. So we're going to put that on there and check it out. Take a look at the chain. It's going to be 42 inches long. And then when you look at the links here, the links are going to have a three eighth of an inch diameter.
And it's also going to have a three eights of an inch hook here on the end. The chain also has a weight rating of 15,000 pounds, and it's also going to have a zinc coating on there. That's just going to help with that rust and corrosion. It's not going to happen as easily. I mean, they're not weather proof, but it is going to help fight that off.
Installation is really easy. We took off our old chain. So what we're going to do, is put it through the shackle right there. Just like that. Let me get my hand out of the way, and then we're gonna attach it to the trailer.
So its lining up with the hole there. I run this through the bottom. Now it's all set up. I'm going to add the Cotter pin in place and then we'll be done. I kind of have an older rustier one so its just going to fight me just a little bit but, not a big deal.
Get it started in there and come back with a hammer. Just give it a couple taps to help it go through. There we go. Now you can just pry those out on each side, And It will Keep that everything in place. Overall, safety chains will be a great addition to your trailer, especially if you're replacing an old worn out one, or you're just looking to upgrade and get you one of the hooks with the guard on there That way it just snaps into place When you go to attach it, and you can be on your way. Well, I think that does it. Thanks for hanging out and I hope this helped..

Heavy duty safety chains! I bought these to replace the coil safety cables for my boat trailer, exactly what I was looking for and the hooks work with both of my curt and drawtite hitches.
Hasn't broken yet
This safety chain is absolutely incredible. Is the best quality I have ever seen and I have been doing this for over 30 years.
Great customer service and fast shipping
WOW I am pretty impressed with this chain, we had some issues locating a reasonably prices set of chains and you folks knocked it out of the park. Thank you so much and you can count on my business to continue using your products & services.
Timely email from etrailer asking me to review these chains. I just got back from the boat and was taking pictures of these chains because of how poor they looked. These chains have been trailered 8 times in the past year, otherwise kept in covered storage and they are rusting like crazy. Stay away
The products are very good two of my parts were not in my package I called and spoke to a very helpful person and the two missing parts were sent to me ASAP I was disappointed when my order wasn't complete but more than satisfied after speaking with her. I received my missing parts and I'm very comfortable continuing buying from e trailer
Chains appear to be heavy duty and good quality. INstalled them to replace the useless cables that our boat trailer came with for safety chains. Those rusted and broke in half! Was concerned whether the hooks would fit on our Tahoe but they fit fine. Recommend.
Useing on the Reese Goosebox. The 5/16 chains were too small for the mounts on my 2015 Ram theses 3/8 safety chains are perfect.
After searching the local areas here for these certain safety chains I was able to find them on etrailer.com The price was good and the shipping was much quicker than expected. Hands down great service!
Very Heavy, as advertised
The chains are extra heavy duty and will serve me well, but the customer service at etrailer is exceptional. The original chains were out of stock, but they sent several options to chose from, should I chose not to wait. They are the best!
Great buy!
Heavy duty,this place is awesome,every time I order something it’s always on time and top quality,great job guys,keep the excellent service coming
Very Good. Glad to find items like these available
Great upgrade on my 14,000 lbs trailer from the 5/16" S hook chains that it came with
When I called to inquire about my order, being delayed, my order was expedited by providing a replacement item without additional cost. I am very happy with the service I have received from your company. Thank You

Thank you for your review. Although these chains are zinc plated it is a good idea to rinse them off with fresh water after being exposed to salt water.
