Tie Down Engineering 59541 Trailer Safety Cables, 7,000 lb Capacity, Galvanized, Pair

The Tie Down Engineering 59541 is a pair of trailer safety cables rated for 7,000 lbs, finished in galvanized steel and fitted with a wire safety latch on each cable. Safety cables are a required backup connection between the tow vehicle and trailer, catching the trailer in the event the primary hitch coupling fails, so choosing a set rated for your trailer's gross weight is essential for safe towing. Each cable in the 59541 pair is self-coiling, keeping slack cable off the road surface during turns and preventing drag, and each pair extends to 36 inches in length when pulled straight. The cables terminate in S-hooks fitted with a wire safety latch that closes over the hook opening, reducing the chance of the cable working loose from the hitch or trailer frame during transport. The galvanized finish resists corrosion, which matters for hardware that is routinely exposed to road spray, moisture, and salt. This design meets or exceeds SAE J684 standards for trailer coupling devices, the specification that governs safety cable and hitch hardware performance. The 59541 is sold as a matched pair and fits a universal range of trailer and hitch setups rather than being limited to a specific make or model.
