SuperLite's Lightweight Truck Tire Chains


System Advances:
  • Lower operating and maintenance cost
  • Lightweight, easier to use with lower workman comp claims
  • Diamond H pattern with special alloy that lasts up to 4 times longer
  • Smoother ride with increased lateral and braking stability
  • Reduces ABS sensor readings and can operate at higher speeds
  • Helpful for ADA and limited work duty drivers

    • Superlite commercial truck tire chains are designed for applications where chains have to be applied often and to last for several seasons in the process.

    Superlite tire chain cross links are manufactured for SuperLite in Norway by TRYGG. TRYGG is the world's premium manufacturer of alloyed chain steel which contain chrome, manganese, nickel and boron, and in some cases nickel and titanium.

    SuperLite chains are also ideal for steering axles when warranted or in conjunction with automatic traction device (ATD) equipped trucks when maximum traction is required by chain laws. First sizes will be for 22.5, 24.5 tires, including super singles and wide base tires.

    We will be offering 3 models using the European diamond H patterns specifically designed for highway use.
