Product Description

Supplied in either 6-1/2” or 7-1/2” diameters depending on application and may contain 6, 12, or 18 strands of hardened steel chain, or stainless anti-spark chain for hazardous applications.

  • Greaseable wheels: Extended bearing life by keeping contaminates out. Air expansion and contraction in the wheel hub may suck contaminates in with temperature and altitude changes. Regular greasing, just like with boat trailer wheels, has proven results keeping the bearing hub cavity filled which reduces air expansion/contraction minimizing the likelihood contaminates getting in.
  • Special Square Linked Hardened Pewag Chain provides maximum biting edge contact with the road while providing long service life.
  • Equal Traction in forward or reverse: Our unique chain does not have a twist, and therefore we do not have to have a left and right side wheel. Our square linked chain doesn’t care which direction you go. Twisted chains work more effectively in one direction requiring a left and right side wheel. When operated in reverse, less traction is provided because the chain will want to roll.
  • Individually replaceable chain strands: Mishaps, pinches against rocks and road grates can cause damage to individual chain strands. Insta-Chain’s square linked chain strands are replaceable individually rather than replacing the entire ring. The benefit is lower maintenance cost since parts are interchangeable between left and right sides.
