Tire Chains for Safe Driving in Snow and Ice

Tire chains are an indispensable tool for winter driving. As an experienced flatbed trucker, you know that there are some jurisdictions around the country that mandate the use of chains under certain weather conditions. Do not get caught waiting at a chain bank until another trucker comes down the road with a set you can use. Buy your own heavy-duty tire traction chains to continuously prepare.

All our snow tire chains come from a well-known manufacturer and are constructed with the trucker's safety in mind. We have both twist and square link chains for you to choose from. You can purchase singles and doubles steel twist link non-skid chains. Not having these traction chains for tires on board during winter is asking for trouble. Don't tempt fate. Instead, buy your truck and trailer traction chains from Mytee Products and be ready for the driving in snow.

Basics of Tire Chains Basics and Regulation?

Tire chains also called snow chains, are chain-linked “nets” that fit snugly around the car or truck tires. They increase a tire’s traction against icy surfaces and improve a truck’s ability to break successfully on ice.

Truck tire traction chains are mandatory in some winter conditions, while in other conditions they’re recommended but technically optional, according to the Department of Transportation. The specifics differ from state to state, so investigate the laws in the states you’re traveling through. The province of British Columbia and the states of California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming collaborated on this guide to tire chain laws in the Northwest.

Put Traction Chains on Tires to Winter Truck Drive?

First, know what type of anti-skid chains you’re using. Most snow chains are strictly designed for driving on highways.
Then, make sure your chains fit your tires. Even if they seem to be the same size, it’s wise to fit them and practice driving with them for the first time in non-winter conditions.
Check the chains for slack. If they aren’t tight enough, make adjustments with the cam-style side chains. Alternatively, you can use bungee tie down straps to create tension and take up the extra slack in the snow chains.
When you’re using winter chains, drive slowly.
In the multi-state truck tire chain guide linked to earlier, the DOT in those states prohibits driving faster than 50 km/hour (31 mph) while you’re using snow chains.
Driving too fast can distress even the best tire chains, and it’s highly dangerous if snow chains break apart on the road.
Once you’re on the dry road again, remove the winter chains to avoid over-stressing them.

Available Tire Chains Sizes

Our square link and twist link chains both come in two size options:

22.5”

24.5”

Choose the size that matches the rim diameter printed on the side of your tire.

Square-link chains last longer and are more durable than twist-link chains, and twist-link truck chains are more affordable.
