What's up everybody It's AJ with etrailer.com. Today, we are gonna be checking out these safety chains from Laclede. We're going to use this to replace our old, kind of rusted up chains, that don't have a guard on them anymore. So now with that replaced, it's gonna be easy to hook them up and get set up to go whenever we need to tow our trailer. Let's check it out. The chain is going to be 35 inches long and also in the inside, it's going to be three eighths of a diameter inside the link here on the chain.
And then coming up here to the hook it's gonna be the same thing, three eighths diameter of the hook. Chain's also going to have a weight capacity of 5,400 pounds and then it's got a zinc coating here on the outside to protect the chain. Now it's not weather proof, but it is definitely gonna help you against rust and corrosion. So it's really easy to get this installed. We went ahead and removed our old one, that we're gonna replace, from the side of our trailer.
And then you just take the shackle, add the chain to it, line up those holes here on the side, drop our clevis pin through. Then at the bottom line that up, and then put our pin back in here at the bottom. And ours is a little rusty. I can push it in a little bit by my thumb there. And then I'll get the hammer just to go ahead and make sure it goes all the way through.
You don't have to hit it hard, just a couple of taps, to see more of the other pin on the other side. Then you can bend those taps out and it's good. Overall, I think it's gonna be a good replacement chain for your trailer. Especially if you got an old rusty one like this. This is gonna be a little bit of an upgrade and it gives you that guard so it's easy when you go to put that safety chain in place.
It locks in, and you're good to go, way quicker. Well, I think that does it. Thanks for hanging out and I hope this helped..

Excellent customer service helping me get the right safety chains for gooseneck horse trailer
Received just fine. Hooked it up to the truck hitch with some very minor filing on the Ford class v hitch where the holes were drilled. Now to give it a try pulling something. (2016 DRW Ford F-350 with Lance 975 Truck Camper)
These safety chains were the perfect fit for my Kachina 25’ Mid Cabin open Bow boat trailer. I’am using these to replace the safety cables that were stock when these trailers were built.
These are very strong replacements for my trailer. In fact they are much heavier duty than I needed. I purchased them primarily for the self latching hooks.

Perfectly. Fit was exact and does exactly what I need.
Used these as replacements on a 3600lb boat trailer. I wanted something stronger than the tiny single chain it had and upsized to these. Great chain. No rust anywhere after a year (fresh water but stored outside. Only downside is hook is thick and probably would jam into the small holes in my hitch. If you have large (bigger than 1 1/4) holes in your hitch you should be good. I welded on the 3/8 chain retainers so replacement in the future would be easier but I think these will last for years. With the retainers and the large chain and hooks I don't worry about bending the hooks if the coupler fails. Which happened on a different trailer once.
I'd definitely buy these again.
My safety chains were on back order but e-trailer kept me updated during the wait. Excellent customer service. These particular safety chains are perfect for my needs and best of all they are made in USA.
Good looking chain. Plating seems to be done well. Links welded completely, not like some cheaper quality safety chains. Length was great for use with Gen-y torsion hitches.
Trailer hitch (adjustable height) works great and the new safety chains are high quality. Thanks guys!
No complaints. I Purchased these trailer chains because they are made here in the USA. Heavy duty and after a year, they still look brand new. If you want the best, get these!
Good hefty 3/8" chain and hook. For use on our sailboat trailer. Hooks are pretty good size, so make sure you have the room to slide them in at your receiver.
Nice heavy duty chain used as a safety chain as a redundant restraint on the bow to trailer strap. Get 'em fast from etrailer.com
Great way to improve upon an inadequate factory safety chain system on my enclosed trailer.
Everything at Etrailer is fantastic.
Thanks again for all your hard work!

Ready made safety chain saved me time and money from having to fabricate
Super nice chain - Watch out for the slip hook though, as it is sturdy, but large (almost 6" long and 4" wide).
got the wrong parts , but the company stood by its products and made everything right.
Thanks etrailer
Mounted these to secure mini-skid steer on trailer. Perfect for what I'm using them for.
Very strong chain and hook. Perfect length as well.
As described, chains are out in the elements 24/7 and still no corrosion or rust.
Would buy again.
