Snow Chains for Wheels GEKO KN80 3.5/12 mm (set of 5)

GEKO KN80 snow chains for wheels, size 3.5/12 mm, supplied as a set of 5, are metal traction aids designed to be fitted around compatible tyres to improve grip on snow and ice. The chains wrap around the tyre tread to increase friction and stability on slippery winter surfaces. These chains are intended for temporary use when additional traction is required and are compatible with wheels that accept this chain size and configuration.

Advantages

The GEKO KN80 chains provide enhanced traction and stability on snowy and icy roads through a durable steel link construction with 3.5/12 mm cross-links. Their design allows relatively quick mounting and removal compared with permanent traction solutions, and the set of five covers multiple driven or supporting wheels depending on vehicle requirements. The metal construction offers resistance to abrasion and cold temperatures typical of winter driving conditions.

Suitable for

• Temporary traction assistance on snow-covered roads
• Driving on icy rural or mountain roads where tyre grip is insufficient
• Use on vehicles and tyres compatible with 3.5/12 mm chain dimensions
• Short-term emergency use when tyres lose traction

Key specifications

• Chain cross-link thickness: 3.5 mm
• Connection link width: 12 mm
• Material: steel chain links suitable for winter conditions
• Supply: set contains five chains
• Intended use: temporary traction on snow and ice

How to use

Fit the chains over clean, undamaged tyres following the vehicle manufacturer's guidance and any local regulations on chain use. Ensure the tyre and wheel are compatible with 3.5/12 mm chains before installation. Lay the chain out flat, place it over the top of the tyre, and work the links around the tread until the chain encircles the tyre evenly. Secure fastening mechanisms and tension the chain according to the manufacturer's instructions to avoid slippage. Drive a short distance at low speed and re-check tension, adjusting if necessary. Remove the chains when driving on clear roads to avoid excessive wear.

Usage recommendations

Use the GEKO KN80 chains only as a temporary aid at reduced speeds, observe local legal requirements for snow chains, and inspect chains for wear or damage after each use. Store chains dry and clean to prolong service life.
