3/8 in x 20 ft G70 Welded Steel Tow Chain 2 Pack - Heavy Duty

In this review of the 3/8 in x 20 ft G70 welded steel tow chain 2 pack, the bottom line is simple: this is a workhorse for hauling and cargo securement. The reviewer found the set best suited to drivers, fleet operators, and anyone who needs DOT-compliant transport chain with dependable strength. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a 6,600 lb working load limit per chain and full Grade 70 identification, which makes these chains a reliable choice when legal compliance and high tensile capacity matter.

Key Features

• Grade 70 System 7 chain: Provides transport-grade strength designed specifically for cargo securement, binding and construction use.
• 6,600 lb working load limit: Offers a predictable safe working load for tie down and recovery tasks when used with proper fittings and techniques.
• 26,400 lb minimum breaking strength: Gives a large safety margin and clear engineering numbers for fleet operators and professional users.
• Clevis grab hooks on both ends: Deliver straightforward attachment points for anchors, binders or other chain fittings without additional modification.
• D.O.T. and N.A.C.M. compliant: Meets the marking and material standards required for highway transport in the United States and Canada.
• Induction heat treated: Improves toughness and wear resistance for regular use in demanding environments.

Who It's For

This 2 pack is aimed at truck drivers, fleet maintenance crews, and contractors who need DOT-standard transport chain for flatbed tie down and load securement. The included clevis grab hooks and clear grade markings make it easy to integrate into existing tie down systems used by commercial fleets.

It is less suitable for light recreational use where a smaller, more flexible strap or lighter chain would be easier to handle; hobbyists who only need occasional light-duty tie downs should consider lighter alternatives that are easier to stow and manipulate by hand.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High perceived quality and heavy weight make the chain feel durable and reliable for repeated use.
• Meets D.O.T. and N.A.C.M. specifications, simplifying compliance for commercial operators.
• Strong working load limit and generous breaking strength provide confidence under load.
• Two chains in a pack offer value for fleets or backup use.

Cons

• Heavy weight makes handling and storage more cumbersome for occasional users.
• Not intended for non-transport applications where lighter or non-metallic tie downs are preferred.
