Extreme winter performance for professionals

The best just keeps getting better, as can be seen with the Z-Chain series. Automotive evolution never stops and winter traction products must keep up. Some of its product highlights include:

• Although Z-Chain has always met S.A.E. Class “S” requirements for passenger vehicles with limited clearance around the drive tires, now the inner cross member connectors and side cable fastening system have been redesigned to operate in even smaller spaces
• Their rigid inside 'hoop' has been replaced with a semi-rigid steel cable, making it possible to roll them up and store them in a much smaller space
• An improved fastening system requires the outside side member to be adjusted in two places, rather than the three required on the original passenger car version of Z-Chain (and six on the original pick-up and SUV version). Construction and installation procedures are now the same for passenger cars, pick-ups, and SUVs
• The product line has been re-engineered to better fit the popular tires found on today’s cars and light trucks (pick-ups and SUVs). This has resulted in the addition of two new stock numbers in the light truck range, as well as many application changes in larger passenger car tires
