Note: These chains are not intended to be put on commercial vehicles like plows, forklifts, or tow trucks.
Installation
1. Drape the chain over the tire (or both tires of a dual-tire setup). You can also lay the chain out and then drive onto it.
2. Drive forward about 1/4 of a tire revolution.
3. Fasten the ends of the chain together.
4. Use the cam tensioning devices to tighten. Do this by inserting the flat end of the included wrench into the slot on each cam and twisting it.
5. Drive forward a bit and tighten the chain as needed.
You can use rubber or chain adjusters (sold separately) to increase the tension on the chains for a tighter fit.
How to Choose Snow Chains for Your Vehicle
To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire, as shown below.

Hi, everyone. It's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our Titan Chains snow with tire chains with the twist links that are designed for your dual tires right here at etrailer. For your duallies or for your trucks to have those dual tires, it's ideal to get those tire chains that's designed for them. That way, you have that extra traction all throughout your axle. So, this is gonna be a tire chain that fits around those two tires.
It's going to be similar in design to the single tire chain but with an extra feature, which is gonna be a third connection that goes through the tires. While there's a bunch of different tire chains for different situations, in this video, I'll explain the differences between those different tire chains' designs. And I'll also show you a special trick that I do in order to install that third connection, which can be tricky for those dual trucks. But first off, let's talk about this twist design we have here. Notice how these chains are twist chains, meaning they're twisted into each other.
That provides a little extra comfort compared to square chains of a similar shape, but they also are super useful if you have a lot of deep snow as well as a lot of mud. Now, if you're expecting a bit more ice than you are expecting snow, what you might prefer then are square chains or these twist chains but then they have a V-bar or cleats on the end. So, we have those here at etrailer as well. That way, you can get your different chains depending on the different types of weather conditions you're expecting. Now, these are going to be made of a low-carbon steel.
And the focus there is going to be grip as well as durability. So, as you're driving around, the carbon steel will help with the ice as well as with the rocks and give you that traction. Now, some other tire chains use a manganese nickel alloy and those are more focused on corrosion resistance. So, in that case, if you are using chains like these made of low-carbon steel, I do recommend just double checking them in between seasons before you put them on your tire to make sure they have not corroded. There's actually two types of these tire chains.
One has a twist link without cam tensioners. And the other one, which is this one, has the twist link with cam tensioners. So, this gives you that extra traction as you install your tire chain. And you also have these extra rubber tensioners too. So, these are sold separately. Not included with your tire chain. I highly recommend getting them though, because as you drive around and if your chains start to shift, this will shift with them and maintain the constant tension. So, when you get your chains, you are going to get two of these canvas bags. So, these canvas bags are technically reusable, but not as long-lasting as a soft shell or a hard shell some other tie chains come in. So, when you do put your chains in there, you can use a rubber band or a zip tie to keep it nice and tight. Now, this is still helpful for keeping it in your truck for whenever you need to use it. You're also going to get this cam tightener. So, this is the tool that you use for your cams in order to loosen or tighten them down. But I also use this to make the connection in between our tires. Let's take a look at that trick. So, compared to your single tire chains, your dual tire chains need to make three connections. So, one and two for the front and the back, and the new one is going to be the third, which goes in between your tire. So, this can be pretty tricky. Sometimes you're gonna have to drive over it and then reach around your tires, or put the chains on and then drive. But what I do so I don't have to drive back and forth is I utilize the tool that comes with the your tire chains that have those cam tensioners. So, what I do is I put the link that needs to be connected right over your cam tensioner and use this to feed it through your tires. So, using the tool, just pull the chains through and then you can connect the other hook. So, you still may wanna drive over your chains and then go out and make those connections, but this is gonna be a nice and easy way to do this if you're stuck in one spot. And that right there was a look at the Titan Chains snow tire chains with the twist links for your dual tires. And these also have those cam tensioners right here at etrailer..

Its pretty good but it is a little loose. I'm not sure if that's how it supposed to be but other than that it's very good and easy to put on.
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Received the chains all good, put then on drove three times on them and chains bent and broke. And was only on pavement once and for couple feet.
Jenny N - 12/26/2022Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
I test fit them today when they came in. Now I know where exactly to place them so the clamp isn't hitting the rim, as seen in the photo.They are heavy duty and bigger than my previous set. Also, to anyone interested in these, make sure to get heavy duty tie-straps to bind the end of the chain to itself so it is not flapping and smacking your shocks.I will do another review in a couple of months after using these in the mountains.

Have not used yet but they fit well on my 255/80r17 tires
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Being from SoCal I’m a novice when it comes to tire chains. These chains fit perfectly and the how too videos were spot on.
As always purchasing through E-Trailer has been a great experience.
From their online ordering to communicating my purchase and prompt shipping of my order they excelled. Most other businesses could learn from them.
Thank-you
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Great price and they’re super easy to install. Very happy with my purchase! I haven’t used them in the snow yet, but installing them in the driveway was far easier than I originally anticipated for “legit” chains.
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Received one chain, only one. Chains for all tires ordered yet received one single chain for one side of dually only. This is extremely bad for your business
Jenny N - 11/16/2022Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
I haven’t had a chance to test these chains out yet, but I will say that they look and feel like they’re good quality. I also want to say thank you to those at etrailer who helped sort out my shipping problem when the shipping company failed to deliver the first time. You guys offer amazing customer service, thank you.

Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
They went on my 2018 Wrangler super easy, and they are heavy duty enough that they get the job done. The cams can come loose if you don't tighten things enough, but after rolling the car forward a bit to even the chains up that's very fixable.
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Wished I had taken the advice and practiced installing them BEFORE I GOT ON ICE/SNOW but beyond that, I was very thankful to have them and when this set wears out, I'll buy them again. 2022 Ram 3500 dually
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Bought these for our 2003 GMC Sierra 3500 extended cab, cab and chassis style dump Truck, equipped with 2016 Western MVP Plow. We live 20 minutes west of Whitefish Mt, where it snow`s heavy and roads and drives tend to do the Thaw/Freeze cycle pretty much everyday during the winter. I plow on a small scale and just locally, but the drives I plow are kinda steep and slippery, but with these chains on, my Truck is an instant HalfTrack vehicle and nothin` stops it. From the start receiving them, installation after checking out the online video, was a snap. Lay em out, cinch em up, turn the cam lock`s, take a grinder with a cutoff wheel and cut off the extra chain to the length my tires require, and I was unstoppable. Really enjoy these. You can also purchase the rubber circle they sell to keep tension throughout the outside wheel surface of the chain. I just use rubber bungy straps and clinch the metal "S" clips with a 4" channelocks. Oh yeah, I recommend these! And if you don`t drive over 30mph and you operate locally around the area you live, it`s a cheap alternative to buying Tire`s with studs, and you don`t have to swap tire`s out every season, or own a seperate set of studded tires and extra set of wheel`s. Good Luck this Winter....

Purchased this for our trip to Alaska. Never had to use them but it was nice to have them just in case. Before we left I installed one and found it easy to install.
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Well they are tire chains for the winter driving..if needed and I lawfully have to carry them on the mountain passes..but hopefully wont have to chain up...
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Seems fine but I haven't used yet. Delivered on time, everything there, fits well on my test fitting.
Impressed with the service from Paula S at Etrailer. She set reasonable expectations and then exceeded them.
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
More detailed installation instructions would really help. I spent almost 2 hours putting these on and they are still loose even with the rubber tensioner. Pictures with text would be greatly appreciated. The chains are of high quality and should last a long time. Just need better instructions.
Brooke M - 01/23/2023Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
I put these on the rear of my truck for the December ‘22 Buffalo blizzard. There was a 7’ snow drift blocking my driveway and with these I was able to pull a u-turn and drive out through the yard. Impressed so far with my first use.
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
etrailer shipping was very fast, ordered on a Friday morning, shipped the same day and recieved on Tuesday of following week (3 working days). Installed on tires, perfect fit. I drove around 2 miles to see how they worked, done what they were suppose to. My only disappointment was "made in China", other than that I am happy with the purchase. Installed on a 2016 Ram 2500HD with 285/60R/20
Carl B - 01/30/2020Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
This is my second set of Titan chains for a different vehicle. They are great and easy to install.
Review from a similar Twist Link Ladder with Cam in Tire Chains
Bought two sets of these chains for my 2018 Ram 2500. My tires are LT285/60R20 and these chains fit like a charm.
Very easy to get onto the vehicle and off of it. Takes about 15 minutes to put on all 4 tires by myself.
Used these in northern NH for a hunting trip. We had about 18-inches of snow on the ground and we traveled logging roads the whole time. These chains got my trunk up a 45° incline covered in fresh 18" of snow. I was amazed that we weren't sliding all over the place. These things grab the snow/ice like claws.
I've recommended these chains to other folks because they are great. They are HEAVY chains, I think about 20+ pounds each. But they are serious chains for serious conditions.
Very, VERY happy with these chains.
