What is Cam vs Non-Cam?

Cam is a mechanical device or mechanism that is used to adjust the tension of the chains while they are in use. They allow for quick and easy adjustments to be made to the tension of the chains without requiring the driver to stop and manually make changes.

Non-cam have a hook that lets you hook each side of the chain around the tire.

Difference between tire chain patterns

It’s important to understand the difference between patterns and how they effect traction.

When you’re purchasing your chains, keep in mind that tire coverage matters a lot. The more the pattern covers your tires, and therefore makes more contact with the ground, the more traction you should expect.

Learn about the pros and cons of the three of the most common tire chain patterns here.

Difference between tire chain link styles

Link styles are the design of the individual chain links that make up the chain. You’ll notice some are more common for certain terrain or vehicle types.

Check out our page on the 4 most common styles and their pros and cons.

How do I install truck tire chains?

Installing tire chains can vary depending on the type and brand of chains you have. Typically, the chains will need to be placed around the tire, with the chain tensioners tightened to ensure a snug fit. It is important to refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for specific installation instructions.

We also have videos for certain chains on our website. Find the product page for your chains, or visit our education page for installation.

Can I drive on pavement with tire chains?

No, tire chains should only be used on snowy or icy roads. Driving on pavement with tire chains can cause damage to the chains, the tires, and the road surface.

How do I maintain my tire chains?

Tire chains should be checked for wear and tightness before each use. If the chains are damaged or worn, they should be replaced. Additionally, the chains should be cleaned and lubricated as needed to ensure they function properly.

Can I use tire chains on any type of tire?

Tire chains are designed to fit specific tire sizes, so it is important to select chains that are compatible with your tires. Additionally, some vehicle manufacturers recommend against the use of tire chains on certain types of tires, such as low-profile or performance tires. It is always best to check the manufacturer’s recommendations for your specific vehicle and tires.

Diamond Back (Pull Chain Style) Alloy Truck Tire Chains

These are my first set of diamond chains.(same design logging equipement uses offroad, reason I chose these) Chains worked great! Aside from breaking 1 tensioner on first day. And definately needing to add extra tensioners to keep chains from slapping inner fenderwell at minimal 15mph. I live 3.5 miles back on deadend road in highlands of Maine.(road only plowed first 1.5 miles in) I had to leave for short while for surgery and didnt keep the road open. Plus a short section interacts with snowmobile trail. Once they groomed it, my truck wouldn't make it up the hill. Slapped these on, few trial drives to get set right on tires. I was up hill and back home no problems. Plus used chains once on just one side of truck. To get unstuck from sinkhole in road, in beginning of mud season.(chains not mud rated per say) I don't like that inside of chains are cables. I'll replace with chain when those break. But overall for the price. They are definately worth the investment. I'll be able to rebuild these no problem as needed. Photos wouldnt upload. Had some good one.

Nordic Studded Alloy Ladder Pattern Truck Tire Chains

Looks like serious traction, but I haven't put them on yet. They'd be difficult to handle if not for the included carry bags with handles. Very nice!
