About this product
The Beaver Trailer Safety Chain 8mm x Galvanised is the safety chain that keeps a towed trailer attached to the tow vehicle if the coupling lets go. This 8mm size carries a designated rating of 1.6t and suits trailers up to 3.5t, which covers most plant trailers, box trailers and site floats running around Perth. It is designed in accordance with AS/NZS 4177.4.
Link dimensions are 31mm pitch, 43.5mm width and 7.6mm material, and it runs out at 91.1m/100kg, so it is a manageable weight to handle on the drawbar. The galvanised finish holds up to weather and road spray better than bare steel, which matters on a chain that lives outside. This is transport chain only. Do not use it for lifting or slinging work.
