Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at the Blue Ox safety cables for flat towed vehicles. Now these are pretty heavy duty cables rated at 7,500 pounds.

Curt Single Hook Coiled S-Hook Safety Cables Review- Video

Hey neighbors, it's Dustin here at etrailer, and today I've got the CURT Coiled Safety Cables. The coiled design is nice because when not in use, you can see we're not dragging the ground here, but when you are ready to use it it's easy enough to stretch over and hook on to the safety chain loops of your hitch. Our braided cables have a nice nylon coating, which if you've ever worked with braided cables you know sometimes they can get metal splinters on 'em, and that's no fun on your fingers. So this is really good to have. Also here, our S-hooks have a gate on them to help keep them in place, and they are zinc coated to help reduce rust and corrosion over time. The overall length of the cables when fully stretched out is 42 inches, which is gonna be great for most trailer and truck combinations or whichever tow vehicle you happen to have. more

Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cables Installation - 2013 Hyundai Elantra- Video

For today on our 2013 Hyundai Elantra, we'll be installing the Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cables with anchors, rated for 6000 pounds, part number RM-655. Now we will be installing the Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cables with anchors under a Roadmaster Falcon 2 tow bar. Now the tow bar, cross bar and everything has already been installed on this vehicle. So we'll just have to add in the Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cables. We will begin with our tow bar removed. You'll notice that the brackets are for right and left, so you need to make sure that you get them on the right side. We'll go ahead and take our bolt, as well as our washer and slide it to the hole that lines up on the bracket already on the vehicle. more

Curt Safety Chains and Cables - Safety Cables - C80151 Review- Video

Today were reviewing part number C80151 from Curt. This is a set of single hook coiled safety cables with an s-hook at one end and a loop at the other. Theyre made of braided stainless steel. I dont know how closely you can see that, but its heavy duty stainless steel. The s-hook itself is coated with zinc so thats going to be corrosion resistant, and it also has a keeper right there that will keep it from popping off of your tow bar. The coiled safety cable has a nylon coating so that will keep it from scratching your car, scratching the paint. more
