Ever frustrated by trailer cables dragging and getting damaged? The Curt Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables are designed to eliminate slack, ensuring they stay off the ground. These cables boast a coiled design that stretches as needed, keeping them tidily coiled when not in use. You can effortlessly make tight turns without worrying about your cables scraping the pavement, which not only maintains the cables' integrity but also enhances your towing safety.
The hassle of fiddling with chains is over. These safety cables come equipped with corrosion-resistant S-hooks featuring wire keepers on one end for secure attachment. The wire keepers prevent the S-hooks from accidentally unhooking, offering a robust connection between your tow vehicle and trailer. Whether you're connected to a thick safety chain connection point on a truck like the Ford F-350 or a typical trailer hitch, the S-hooks open wide enough to accommodate various hitch setups easily.
Towing adventures can often expose your equipment to harsh conditions, but these safety cables are built to withstand the elements with a sturdy braided steel construction. Furthermore, the nylon coating prevents abrasions and protects your setup from scratches and corrosion. Rated for a 7,500 lb weight capacity, these cables can handle demanding towing scenarios, making them a reliable choice for both moderate and heavy towing needs.
These cables are 42 inches in length, making them an ideal fit for diverse towing setups. Whether you're replacing shorter 30-inch chains or adapting to different hookup points on varied tow vehicles, the extra length offers flexibility without added hassle. Plus, the coiled design compensates for the extended reach, ensuring the cables do not hang loose or pose a safety hazard.
Thanks to zinc-coated S-hooks, these cables resist rust and maintain their structural integrity across seasons. This translates to minimal maintenance on your part and provides long-lasting performance—especially valuable for trailers exposed to moisture or salty environments, such as those used near saltwater or on snowy roads.
Safety is paramount when towing, and these cables offer a reliable backup should the main hitch connection fail. By maintaining a robust link between the tow vehicle and trailer, these cables help prevent your vehicle and trailer from parting ways, reducing the risk of road incidents. With a year of limited warranty from CURT, you can tow confidently knowing these cables have got your back.

Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at the Curt single-hook coiled safety cables with S-hooks. Part number C80176. These safety cables are going to be a great replacement for your old, rusty or broken safety chains. Here you can see on our test drive the safety cables are not dragging or clanging around. They're perfectly tracking our tow vehicle. This will help them remain smooth and quiet.
One of our customers said they don't have to worry about pulling up on the campsite super early and waking everybody up. These are nice and quiet compared to noisy chains. They're a braided steel construction with a nylon coating, so we're not going to have any rust and corrosion. Like safety chains, these safety cables are going to act as a backup should your trailer become uncoupled from your tow vehicle.What's nice about these cables is the coil design is going to prevent any dragging when connected like you would see with most link styled chains. The same goes for when they're not in use.
They're not going to be resting in the mud or the moist grass furthermore causing corrosion. On one end, we have a large S type hook, so it's going to work with most safety chain connections. It even features a gate so it won't accidental become disconnected. On the other end, we have a loop so we can connect it to our trailer. Here you can see on this application, we have a welded on bracket with a bolt going through.
Now, you will have to provide your own hardware. Now, in connecting them to your tow loops on your hitch, it's a good idea to cross them just like you would your standard safety chains. This is going to create a cradle so it catches your coupler should it come disconnected from your tow vehicle.They feature a 7500 pound weight rating. The overall length from hook to hook is 42 inches long. Another great thing about the nylon coating is it's not going to harm or scratch your towing setup, and I personally like that it's not going to tear up my hands.
That's going to complete our look at the Curt single hook coiled safety cables with S-hooks. Part number C80176.
