Quality judgment and service life of anti-skid chain

Feb 07, 2023

Anti-skid chains are familiar to car owners, but most of them do not know from which aspects a good anti-skid chain should be judged. Today, I will talk about the quality judgment of anti-skid chains.
1. Judging from the raw materials, when choosing high-quality anti-skid chains, most of us must have a certain selection criteria, understand their quality and applicability. We should know that steel and TPU are suitable for different types of vehicles, as long as appropriate, it is better.
2. Judging the overall quality, the anti-skid chain made of the original TPU material will appear crystal clear even if it is stained. Assuming that any impurities in it can be seen at a glance, the regenerated TPU will be milky and not transparent. Assuming that the raw material is mixed with recycled material, the transparency of the product will fall.
How long can a pair of snow chains last? To what extent should it be scrapped? When the wear of rubber and cow's tendon anti-skid chains is more than 30%, they can't be used again. If the chain piece breaks, it must be removed immediately to prevent the car from being damaged. Wash the chain with warm water after use every year. Generally speaking, a pair of anti-skid chains can be used for several years. However, salt and snow melting are usually sprayed on many sections, which is very corrosive to the metal on the anti-skid chain, so the owner must pay attention to rust prevention during the storage process. The iron hook on the rubber chain and the ox tendon chain should also pay attention to rust prevention. Careful owners can also apply rust inhibitor to it.
