Apex Tools Group Llc 231916 Tow Chain 5/16 in 16 Ft 3900 Lb

Product Description

The APEX TOOLS GROUP LLC 231916 is a Grade 43 high-test tow chain designed for vehicle recovery, towing, and heavy load-securing applications. The chain measures 5/16 inch in trade size and runs 16 feet in length, with a working load limit of 3,900 pounds. It features a zinc-plated steel construction finished with a double bright blaze orange poly coating that resists rust and corrosion. Clevis grab hooks are included at each end for quick attachment to standard tow points. The high-visibility orange finish makes it easy to spot on the ground or in a truck bed, reducing the risk of it being overlooked on a job site.

This tow chain suits roadside assistance professionals, towing operators, fleet maintenance crews, and contractors who need a reliable Grade 43 chain for periodic towing or tie-down work. The 16-foot length accommodates standard vehicle-to-vehicle towing distances and provides enough slack for safe hook-up on uneven terrain. The clevis grab hooks attach to trailer frames, recovery points, and tow hitches without additional hardware in most common configurations.

Installation Notes

Tow chain installation and use should be performed by qualified towing or recovery professionals familiar with load limits and safe rigging practice. Always confirm that the tow point, hitch, or recovery anchor is rated at or above the chain working load limit before applying tension. Inspect hooks, links, and the poly coating for cracks, deformation, or corrosion before each use, and remove from service if any damage is found. Never exceed the stated working load limit or use this chain as a primary lift sling.
