Hi Dean; I'm only seeing the BulletProof Hitches 5/16" Safety Chains # BPH94MR which is a pair rated for 18,800 lbs. The individual chain rating is 9,400 lbs. What brand was the single safety chain? I don't see it as part of anything you looked at either, just the 3/8" # BPH86RR which you already pointed out is rated for 26,400 lbs, 13,200 lbs per chain.
