Frequently Asked Questions: 20mm x 30t G80 Truck Trailer Safety Chain Holder
- Is this holder compliant with Australian heavy vehicle regulations?
Yes, this 20mm Grade 80 safety chain holder is fully engineered to meet the stringent design and safety requirements of ADR 62/02, making it legal for use on heavy truck and trailer configurations across Australia. - What does the 30-tonne rating signify?
The 30-tonne (30t) rating represents the maximum load capacity the holder is certified to support. This heavy-duty capacity ensures it can reliably manage the massive kinetic forces generated if a heavy vehicle’s primary coupling fails. - How is the Grade 80 (G80) chain secured inside this holder?
The chain link drops into the heavy-duty structural slot and is locked in place using a specialized high-tensile pin. This layout eliminates the need for bulky, easily lost D-shackles while providing a highly secure mechanical connection.
