Types Of Automobile Anti-skid Chains

Iron chains - some are steel chains, which are widely used and are also the most common and classic. The advantages and disadvantages are well known. The advantages are low price and durability. The defects are loud noise, difficult disassembly and assembly, relatively heavy, and the fatal thing is that the tire wear is relatively serious. Because the iron chain is fixed by steel wire on the front and back sides of the tire, the iron chain exposed on the tire surface is free to move forward and backward. During the anti-skid process, the interaction between the iron chain, the air and the tire causes the tire to be injured, and the tire is like a file. This kind of iron chain has simple trapezoidal shape and diamond shape. The former is mostly used for trucks and the latter is used for cars. The diamond shape has better application effect than trapezoidal shape. Because the fixed points of the iron chain are more than trapezoidal shape, the diamond shape has less wear on the tires. The diamond iron chain of ordinary cars is about 140-180 yuan (a pair of 2 tires), and the cheap ones are about 80 yuan. This iron anti-skid chain is gradually withdrawn from the car supplies market and replaced by the following two types of anti-skid chains. The defect is easy to damage the tire.
(2) Cow tendon chain - this is a chemical mixture of PVC, PP and PT, which is a recently developed anti-skid equipment for vehicles that is comparable to modern vehicles. After turning it over, it is a whole like a scarf. In the middle, there are several diamond patterns with several steel nails on them. The device is convenient. Just lay the anti-skid chain on the ground, drive the car up gradually, then hold it up and fix it on the drive wheel. The appearance is also very beautiful. The price is between 260-390-500 yuan (one pair/two tires). It fluctuates with the weather and the price of raw materials. The defect is easy to break.
(3) Rubber chain - The shape of this rubber chain is basically similar to that of cow tendon chain, except that the rubber used is of good quality and can have a strong tensile force. In addition, tensile resistant nylon wire is arranged in the rubber. Just like the manufacture of tire, nylon wire plays a role of tensile resistance and reinforcement, and steel nails on the rubber play a role of anti-skid. Although the appearance is similar to that of the cow tendon chain, the apparent overall thickness and mesh are larger than that of the cow tendon chain. This rubber anti-skid chain is very useful in ice and snow days and mountain climbing, and the price is usually between 260 and 450.
(4) Wire rope anti-skid chain
It is the American SCC steel wire rope anti-skid chain that has only been sold in China in the last 1-2 years. The feature is that there is no need to use the jack, and the three-minute quick device. And the service life is three times that of other anti-skid chains, and manganese alloy is used. Reasonable design. We will coordinate high, middle and low grade cars and off-road vehicles.
