AJ: What's up, everybody It's AJ with Etrailer.com. Today we're going to check out this multi-arm rubber adjuster for your tire chains. Now this is from Glacier Chains. What you're going to do is you're going to put this on your chain that might be kind of loose and not fitting super tight to your tires before you add the adjusters but you can see with the adjusters, nice and tight, I can barely move that chain at all. Let's check them out.So now we're going to remove the adjuster. This one's pretty tight, you do have to pull on it just a little bit to slide it out, which is a good thing.
Now they're removed, you can see what I'm talking about. I can easily pull on this chain, it moves around. You don't want that happening while you're driving on the road.Just so you know, these come in three different sizes, this is the passenger car size, you can also get light truck and heavy truck. So make sure you get the right adjuster for the right chains for the right vehicle.Now I'd like to show you another option that's a rubber adjuster that we offer. There's this one, that's kind of this rubber ring with these hooks that go around it and it's different already because there's no arms and the hooks you can remove too.
So that's one thing that's kind of against it is that these can pop off. And I like that they're attached on this one. You don't have to worry about them ever popping off. So if I accidentally pop this one off or a couple of them and I go to use this at the last minute and it's missing those hooks, I'm out of luck. It's not going to tension these chains and that's not going to help me when I'm driving.Now versus that, this one's altogether and it's got these rubber arms and I've seen them break before but you're not going to put them through as much as we've put them through.
We test fit tire chains all day long some days and so these get a lot of use, more use than you probably would, using it for driving a couple times a year, if that's what you use it for, they're going to hold up just fine. But that's also one of the negatives with this. But I still prefer this style over this style just because it's all together, it's complete. I can throw it in the back of the car and know that all the parts I need are going to be there when I need them.So as you saw, this works very well at getting that tension on these chains that might be loose like this and shouldn't be driving on them. This is going to be that solution that pulls them nice and tight and keeps it all together when you're not using it, that way it's easier to find, throw them on the chains and you get on your way in the snow and ice.Well thanks for hanging out.
I hope this helped.

Ratings & Reviews
These chain tensioners are the best I’ve ever used. I have 35 inch tires and actually use two of these on each wheel so there is a tightener between every link. I plan to purchase more when these wear out.
These are great and keep the chains in place and stop rattling and potential damage to the vehicle
They are perfect exactly what i needed.
The product appears to be a quality product. I needed to cut the links to fit my particular tire and they fit great and the cam adjuster snug the chain tight to the tire. Etrailer followed up on my satisfaction and I told them I snapped one of the legs on the tensioner and etrailer sent me a new set that I received days later. Great service from etrailer!
Almost too large for chains on a 20” tire but they are built very heavy duty. So far no concern of it breaking like the light duty style.
Great product!
These cables fit the tires on my F-250 perfectly ( 275/65 R-20). The instructions are easy to read and understand ( I've used other tire chains before) and the installation is painless. I got the first one on in just over 5 minutes the second went on in 3 1/2 minutes. This was a trial fitting in a dry driveway so I strongly think a 15 minute installation is possible in more severe weather conditions. Thank you very much your service team went out of their way to contact me when one of my parts had a slight delay. Ted vG
I have not used the tire chains yet but was grateful for the prompt recommendation for tire chains and chain tensioners for my vehicle. The order arrived on time in just a few days and is now waiting for use!
Never had to use it. Bought this because it was long term predicted to snow during the time frame of a 2019 winter trip to Las Vegas. However the worst we encountered was a very light dusting with nothing accumulating on the highway. The product is stored in my Suburban, next to the jack, just in case.
Works well, used on a defender 110 with 255/60/R20 and they seem to provide the right amount of tension to keep the chains tight and centered.
Great product, bought to use with the Glacier Tire chains I purchased from Etrailer. Worked like a charm ! Would highly recommend them to anyone running chains !!
These guys are awesome!!! I have a odd size truck tire. BFG's A/T 285/65R20. I called in and the lady I spoke with was very nice and very informative. I needed these chains in 2 days. When I ordered I gave her my address, but was using a company credit card with a different billing address. She realized this and advised me there may be a issue getting them in time due to they way the credit card would process. Had she not caught this, I would not have recieved them in time. Once they arrived, on time, they are great. Excellent quality. Easy to put on. I ordered tensioners as well. They are not needed, but they get the chains really tight. I would recommend them to anyone.
Just received my Chains today for my Excursion 22x45x305, was suppose to have received them Friday, but do to weather UPS was not able to send them! When I call customer service they researched them and found that they had been held up in L.A. and that I wouldn't be getting them till Monday, Which where delivered at 9 am this morning! The representative was professional and handle this situation in a timely matter. Even thou the product got here late at no fault of ETrailer they handle it perfectly! Will be using them on my next trip to the Mountains! Another happy customer!!
Was panicked that the listed delivery date for the ordered cable chains would be missed and we would be unable to drive from central Oregon to Arizona in my 40 foot diesel pusher pulling a pickup because I couldn’t comply with the Carry Chains requirement for most of my route through Oregon and Northern California. However, they arrived when promised, even though it was over the Christmas Holiday, and we are happy campers. Thank you so much etrailer.
Service was excellent. They went above and beyond the call when the item I ordered was backordered. They called me, gave me options, and when it was clear my order wouldn't arrive before my trip, they made certain I would get the item I needed by shipping to an alternative address. Nice job! I'll definitely be ordering from eTrailer again.
Got these for my chains at Etrailer. Worked well. Bungees are a must to keep your chains tight
Great tensioners, easy to put on, and they stay on when it counts! Much better than metal spring style tensioners.
I installed them for the first time today (my first for any tire chain). The instructions could be a little clearer for first time users. Your pictures are useless.
No problems once I figured out the steps.
Nice product.
Impossible to get it back in the bag after first use - broke the zipper on my bag. Could use a much better bag or bigger bag.
Overall a very good product.
It arrived yesterday.
I never really "want" to put on snow chains, but always happy I have them.
I head to the mountains this weekend for some skiing.
I'll be sure to take photos, when they make their maiden run.
I like that etrailer called to tell me the adjuster I ordered was on back order and they had a similar item that was in stock. When I accepted the change, items were shipped out the next day. Good Job!
Tire chains arrived in a timely manner, and everything worked great!
I wished all bussiness were as helpful. As the customer service person are here. They only want the best for you.
Thank you e trailer
I haul logs in the Pacific Northwest, we chain up 2 to 4 times a day in the winter. This product is easier to deal with than individual bungees.
If Alex is any indication, etrailer.com is the place you want to shop for all your trailer and traction needs! Excellent and very knowledgeable customer service!

Follow up: was initially used on 285 55 r20. They were a little long but cut them down to proper length and worked perfect. I really like them. Got a second set of tire for pickup, 275 70 r18. Little bit looser on the narrower tire but still working great!
