Solution to Add 30,000-lbs Safety Chains to Gooseneck Trailer
Updated 03/26/2021 | Published 03/24/2021 >
Question:
I need a set of 30K safety chains for gooseneck trail. But I also need a way to secure them to the trailer. What can you offer?

Expert Reply:
I recommend using the Fulton Safety Chain with 1/2" Clevis Hook - 42" Long - 45,200 lbs - Qty 1 # FCHA0070324, which are our highest rated chains after a 26k rated chain. These don't include the bolts so they can keep the weight rating as high as possible, so you'll want to source mounting hardware from your local hardware store. I recommend getting the largest bolt that will fit your application and the highest grade you can get to retain as much of that capacity as possible. You should have a mounting location on the gooseneck coupler on your trailer, but if there is not a mounting location you'll want to fabricate something welded to the coupler.
I've linked a review video of these for you to check out.
