Which chain grade is best for towing?

Depending on the vehicle you’re hauling, the chain grade may differ. If you’re hauling a regular sized vehicle or truck, you should use a chain with a grade no lower than 70, while with heavy construction equipment should go no lower than 80.

Should you cross chains when towing?

You should always cross your chains when attaching chains to your vehicle. By crossing the chains, it helps the trailer while turning to reduce the amount of stress and creates a cradle if the chain gets separated from the truck.

When should you not use towing chains?

Towing chains should not be used if you know or want to make sure the chain won’t damage the vehicle while towing. For example, if the vehicle's profile runs low, it’s safer to use a towing strap to get the vehicle up on the bed.

What must a tow chain have when towing?

A tow chain should have the appropriate working load limit for the tow you want to do and should have the right end fittings that are compatible with your vehicles such as large J-hooks or T-hooks.

Guaranteed To Hook You In!

Mytee Products 15'' G70 J-hook is perfect for those in the towing and hauling in a trucking industry! J-hooks can be used by attaching to the axles of all types of vehicle models. Whether you're replacing a worn-out J-hook or building your own chain assembly, our 15'' J-hook has a working load limit of 5400 lbs. Durable and long-lasting, Mytee Products' J-hooks and chains are made with gold finish, Grade 70 steel.

J-Hook Tips:

Mytee Product's J-hooks are one of the most useful towing devices available! However, there are some important factors all truckers should keep in mind when using J-hooks:

Ensure vehicle is completely centered in the bowl of the hook, never tip- or side-load.
Attach large J-Hooks to the axle of the vehicle, not the rear or front bumpers. J-Hooks can damage and bend the aluminum of the bumpers.
Identify and never exceed the Working Load Limit. Our WLL is 5400 lbs.
Never heat, weld, or reshape the bend of the hook. Doing so changes properties of the hook, making it no longer safe to use. If you need a specific type or shape of hook, we have several available for purchase - like our RTJ Cluster and Grab hooks!

G70 Gold Chrome

Our 15'' J-hook is finished with the signature gold chrome of Grade 70 steel. Durable and built to be long-lasting, G70 hooks are able to withstand snow, rain, and mud!

However, Grade 70 steel should NOT be used for overhead lifting, as Grades 80 and above are better suited for heavy equipment and overhead lifting.

Tow It Yourself!

Sometimes off-shelf products don't fit your exact needs when replacing tools, or the idea of building your own tow chain for those needs is an exciting challenge!

Regardless of the reason for purchasing an individual J-Hook, Mytee products 15'' towing hook is guaranteed to provide the support required to haul your loads! It has a 4 and 3/16th inch hook on one end and an integrated link on the other that easily attached to chains, helping you save time and increase productivity!
