Quick Link Recommendation for 7,700 lb Safety Chain Application
Question:
this item Curt Threaded Quick Link, 1/210K Item # c82932 inch states 16,500 GTW, not just 3300 as the other curt links. Can you please verify if this item is in fact higher rated. My trailer can be up to 7700 lbs so I want to be well inside the combined working limits. Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Curt quick link part # C82932 has two ratings. 3,300 lbs where it is safe to be used at all the time without fatiguing it and the break strength which is 16.5k.
Two of these would be good for 6,600 in a safe load limit. For a safety chain situation where it's going to be all the capacity at once plus some inertia I'd not recommend them.
The part # BX88197 is a similar 1/2 inch diameter link that is designed for use with 10k safety cables so it would be the better option.
