TIRE CHAINS FOR CARS, TRUCKS, & HEAVY EQUIPMENT
- "All-Square" is the trade name for Pewag's long-wearing
alloy square link chain. This chain was especially designed by
Pewag for superior wear and traction under the most severe snow
and ice conditions. What makes "All-Square" outlast
the standard carbon steel and "V"-Bar twist-link chains
four-to-one at a minimum?
ALLOY CONTENT
- This fine grain nickel manganese alloy offers extreme hardness
as well as tensile strength. Inside hardness is at approximately
51 RHC. That's like tool steel hardness!!

CASE HARDNESS
- Our outside hardness is at 63 RHC with a .06% depth. Most twist-link
carbon chains have a RHC of 53 with a .03% depth of hardness.

LINK DESIGN
- Pewag's special square link design offers superior traction
over twist link designs. Why? Because there is more chain in contact
with the road, with more "leading" edges to grip ice
and snow. The square design wears more evenly, unlike the twist
link that wears only on the high points (where, by the way, all
the torque is concentrated).
So now do we have you thinking?
REVERSIBLE
- Yes, the square link allows you to reverse the chain and wear
it on the other side. Because of the high tensile strength, you
can wear one side down, reverse it, and have the wear and strength
of another chain.
WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?
- Simply stated, Pewag's alloy square link- "All-Square"
- products offer excellent wear, traction, and value.
