Safety Chain D-Shackle for Tow Bars | Maximum 3.0t ATM

All trailers in Australia, including caravans and campers, must connect to the tow vehicle with a rated chain.

D-shackles commonly connect the safety chain to the tow bar. D-shackles are cheap, easy to attach/detach, and provide a secure connection, making them a simple choice for trailer and caravan owners.
