Today on our utility trailer, we're going to be installing the Laclede 48" Long Safety Chains with a 3/8" hook, rated for 3,000 pounds part number 2114-553-04. These are 48" long safety chains. The chain diameter itself is a 3/16" with 3/8" hooks and it is rated for a class 1. It has a 3,000 pound minimum breaking strength. Here's what our new safety chains look like, that we're going to be installing on our trailer. You will need to supply the hardware to secure the safety chains to your trailer. On this particular trailer, there's already a couple holes. One on this side, there's also one over here that we're going to use to secure the chains. You want to first find the center, which is this link right here.
We're then going to hook our chains over around the wiring. We'll take our bolt. Again, you'll need to supply the hardware to attach the chains to your trailer. We're going to be using a bolt, a flat washer on this side, a flat washer, a lock washer, and a hex nut on the inside of the trailer to secure it. Once you have the hardware tightened down, that's all there is to it to installing your new safety chains. These safety chains are required in most states to secure the trailer to your tow vehicle in the event that the trailer coupler should come off the ball. With that, that's all there is to it to installing the new Laclede 48" Long Safety Chains with 3/8" hooks, pounds part number 2114-553-04, as installed here on our utility trailer.

1 Replacement safety chain perfectly sized for small trailers towing up to 3,000 lbs. 2 Chains are required in most states because they're the last line of defense in the event of an emergency disconnect. Made in the USA.My father and I built my little trailer from scratch. We purchased a wiring harness, electrical clips, fenders, and a safety chain from etrailer. We are extremely happy with our products and the customer service we received!
Etrailer.com has the absolute BEST customer service I’ve ever experienced. Their inventory is always full and they have never sent the wrong item. I highly recommend them to anyone!!
Trust etailer.com to have the safety stuff you need. My truck was saved once by having not just safety chains on the trailer, but a safety chain on the bow eye of a boat. My rig was rear-ended and the safety chains on the trailer and on the boat prevented the boat and trailer from ending up smashed into the back of the truck. Don't go home without both - get 'em from etrailer.com
These safety chains seem super safe. I haven't needed to use them yet. I hope to never find out how safe they really are.
As a owner of a auto repair shop i have used this site to help customers find the right trailer hitch for there car and for me ones that are mostly bolt up to car and etrailer.com makes it easy for me the installer and the customer.
as a busy shop in Briarcliff I always recommend etrailer.com
excellent quality and workmanship
Bought this to replace my safety chains on my utility trailer. Shipping was on time and product was exactly what I wanted. Happy buyer.
This lightweight chain worked well for my canoe/kayak trailer. Great price as well. Quick link options are limited if you want to match the chain rating with the link.
The price can't be beat. I got 1 set for safety chains and another to hold my ramps in place. I just used 2 quick links and cut each side to length.
Purchased to replace original breakaway emergency brake chain which was all rusted. Very pleased with the quality as it is more heavy duty than the original for a great price.
I used this chain on a hitch extension I made. It works great and was an easy modification.
Perfect safety chains for ny small trai ler..
Chain is a chain. Looks to be of decent quality. Hope to never need to find out how well they work. Bolted right on. Direct swap to rusty old short chains that came on a used trailer.
Perfect, high qualité and low price.
