Is your trailer or caravan chain too short?

The solution

  • Cut the trailer chain from your chassis rail, leaving one welded link on the chassis.
  • Install a new piece of rated galvanised 10mm longer chain. This chain is 64cm long.
  • Connect the Hammerlock to the new chain and the welded link on the chassis rail.

What you cannot do

  • Join the safety chain with dee or bow shackles until you reach the desired length.
  • Insert un-rated safety chain links.

Galvanised chains and shackles are illegal on all trailers OVER 3.5t.
