Snow chains for lorries are essential equipment for winter journeys. Lorry wheel chains will help you climb hills when road conditions are unfavourable. This makes it really worthwhile to purchase quick-fit snow chains for lorries.
When are snow chains for lorries useful?
When travelling long distances, ensuring safety on the road is crucial. This is even more important when winter arrives or when you need to drive through areas where snow may appear unexpectedly or is a permanent feature.
In such winter conditions, you may encounter not only snow and slush, but also icy roads. This is particularly dangerous when you consider the risk of losing control of your vehicle, especially when it comes to lorries and trucks. In such situations, snow chains come to the rescue, as they can significantly increase driving safety in winter conditions. In order to fulfil their function, they must be the right size and fit the tyre perfectly, only then can they provide the optimum level of traction and stability.
Ladder chains are characterised by their high durability and ease of installation. Thanks to the use of special hardened steel, which has been carefully galvanised, snow chains become even more resistant to damage and weather conditions.
Snow chains for lorries in Austria will improve road safety
Chains intended for use in Austria are lightweight, durable and easy to install. Their advantage is that they provide very good traction, which is essential on demanding winter roads.
It is important to ensure that snow chains comply with the standards applicable in Austria. These are O-Norm V5119 and GF/TUV standards, which means that they are approved for use on Austrian roads. What is more, in some months, chains are mandatory equipment for TIR vehicles.
Sectional chains for TIR wheels
Sectional chains are ideal for emergency situations, such as getting out of a snowdrift or icy spot. It is helpful to put the chain on a wheel that is partially stuck in the ground. These snow chains feature a ladder-like arrangement of chains and are attached to the wheel with steel bolts. The side plates used ensure that the set fits perfectly to the wheel.
To take full advantage of their functions, three to five chains should be installed. A big advantage is the possibility of quick installation on lorries. If one section is damaged, it can simply be replaced. This can be done without affecting the other sections.
Ladder chains for lorries driving in Norway
Trygg chains are a suitable and necessary solution for use on roads in Norway. What distinguishes them from other car chains is the presence of spikes or an additional reinforced crossbar, which provide better traction and increase safety when driving in difficult conditions.
However, this does not in any way affect their lightness or installation. They are made of hardened and galvanised steel, which has a positive effect on their durability. The chains can be arranged in a diamond or ladder pattern.
How to choose the right snow chains for your vehicle?
Choosing the right snow chains is crucial for ensuring maximum safety on the road. It is important that the chains are properly matched to the size of the tyres, as only then will they provide optimal traction. Before purchasing, check the tyre dimensions and the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations. It is also worth paying attention to the material from which the chains are made – hardened and galvanised steel, which is resistant to damage and corrosion, works best. We should also remember that chains for lorries will have different requirements than those for passenger cars or off-road vehicles.

Benefits of using anti-skid chains
Anti-skid chains are not only protection against difficult winter conditions, but also a way to increase driving comfort. Thanks to them:
-
Vehicle stability on snowy and icy roads is improved.
-
Braking distance is reduced, which is crucial in emergency situations.
-
Manoeuvring the vehicle is easier, even on steep hills.
-
The risk of accidents and collisions is reduced, which is particularly important for heavy vehicles such as lorries.
Regular use of snow chains can also extend the life of your tyres, as it reduces wear on difficult surfaces.
Standards and regulations for snow chains in Europe
When travelling in Europe, it is important to be aware of local regulations regarding snow chains. In many countries, such as Austria, Norway and Switzerland, they are mandatory in certain weather conditions. In Austria, for example, snow chains must comply with O-Norm V5119 and GF/TUV standards, which guarantee their quality and compliance with safety requirements. In Norway, due to the harsh climate, it is recommended to use chains with spikes, which provide additional traction on icy roads.
Storage and maintenance of truck chains
In order for truck chains to serve for many seasons, it is necessary to store and maintain them properly. At the end of winter, they should be thoroughly cleaned of salt, mud and other contaminants, then dried and stored in a dry, cool place. Regular inspection of the chains will allow you to detect any damage and prevent it from worsening during the next season. Taking care of your snow chains is an investment in the longevity of the product and in road safety.
