When the snow piles up or the road turns icy, the grooved square links on these pewag chains dig in and hold strong. The ladder pattern keeps constant contact with the ground, giving steady traction as you drive through deep snow, ice, or packed mud. Each 7 mm link grabs firmly to help you start, stop, and climb hills without slipping.
These chains are built from nickel manganese alloy steel that resists corrosion and wear in salt, snow, and slush. The case-hardened surface adds extra toughness so the outer layer stands up to abrasion while the inner core stays strong under stress. Even with heavy use on rough or icy roads, this alloy holds its shape and strength season after season.
Forget about levers or cams that can come loose. These chains use a simple manual tension setup that stays tight as you drive forward or back through ruts and uneven terrain. Once you hook them in place, they hold steady so the cross chains don’t slap or tangle. For an even snugger fit, you can use optional rubber adjusters.
Each link is built to be used on either side, so when one face starts to wear, just flip the chains over and keep going. This reversible design gives you two full lifecycles from one set, saving you money while keeping the same level of traction and performance through multiple winters.
Designed specifically for wide-base tires, these chains provide full tread coverage where it counts. They come as a pair and fit tire sizes from 15" to 17-1/2". Whether you’re driving through mountain passes or breaking trail on icy backroads, this setup gives your tires a sure bite and steady pull when traction matters most.
These chains fit the following tire sizes:

Today, we're gonna be telling you all about the Pewag all square snow tire chains. What sets these apart from some of the other chains is these are gonna give you around 32% more traction than some of the competitors. And what gives it that is the massive links that we have. This is seven millimeter links. So, they're very, very big compared to some of the other ones you have options of on our website. So, these are gonna be made of a manganese nickel alloy steel.
That's kind of a standard across the board. But these can go on or off road. So, whether you're on the road or off the road, you're gonna be good. This isn't gonna give you the most amount of traction, compared to some of the V-bar style chains. Those are gonna be a little bit more aggressive but you might start to chip up your garage floor if you install them before you go out.
So, be mindful of that. We don't really have a whole lot of contact with the wheels. I mean, if we did have some heavy, heavy snow down at the latch, this might go and hit the wheels. So, just keep that in mind. There are some other ones that will be a little bit more protective, but, regardless, it's gonna take a lot to really get these chains to go and cause some damage to your wheels.
They do come in a pair of two, so, we can put these on the drive wheels in the back. But if you have a four wheel drive model, you can do that as well. But always just triple check your owner's manual. They do come in a big bag, so, it's not gonna be tough to get 'em back in there. This is a thicker canvas.
Some of the other type of bags, they kind of crack over time, but some actually have carrying cases, which is a little bit better. But I do think that this is gonna hold up throughout the years that you use it. It's pretty small, so, you can just throw it in the back of your truck, underneath the seat, or even just in your toolbox. Regardless, it just does come in a pack of two, so, grab as many as you need. When it comes to chains you just want to get unstuck. And these are gonna be a great middle of the road to get you that extra traction but not really tear up your concrete. And that's pretty much everything about the Pewag all square snow tire chains..

After a year of owning these chaims, I am very pleased. I take them with me whenever I travel in the winter months. They have not failed me yet. I will replace them in the future when and if they fail.

I used the chain while visiting Sequoia Natl Park in Feb. I wasnt easy putting the chains on like the video. Also, Glacier Multi-Arm Tire Chain Tensioners didnt fit. They were way too short. Chains did fit eventually, but with lots of effort, and did provide good traction.

One year later the chains are working well, they did come loose once even with the proper blue colored spider type rubber tightener. Luckily I caught it before any damage was caused. I check them regularly. I would definitely recommend these chains for off pavement usethats all I use them for..
