Zinc-Plated Steel with 3\/8 in. S-Hook","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis bow safety chain from Tie Down Engineering secures your boat to the bow stand on the trailer during loading and transport. Made from 3\/16 in. (#30 proof coil) steel and finished with zinc plating for corrosion resistance in both freshwater and saltwater environments, the chain measures 15-1\/2 in. In total length. A 3\/8 in. Zinc-plated S-Hook with wire latch is included, allowing the chain to attach quickly to the boat's bow eye and winch stand without tools. This creates a dependable mechanical connection between the boat and trailer, helping prevent the boat from shifting or detaching while it is being winched onto the trailer or towed down the road. The chain is a common replacement or upgrade item for boat, personal watercraft, and utility trailers where the factory safety chain has worn, corroded, or been lost. Its compact package size and simple hook-and-latch design make it straightforward to install as a direct swap on most standard bow stands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tie Down Engineering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 81201\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e #30 proof coil, zinc-plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/16 in.
