Snow chain HUSKY type 130 TÜV/Ö-Norm V5117, 9 mm link thickness

HUSKY type 130 snow chains designed to meet TÜV and Ö-Norm V5117 standards, featuring 9 mm link thickness to improve traction on snow and ice. The chain is intended for fitting to a vehicle's drive wheels to increase grip and braking performance during winter driving. Manufactured for temporary use on snowy or icy roads, this model focuses on delivering reliable contact with the road surface while meeting applicable safety norms for snow chain construction and performance.

Advantages

The 9 mm link thickness provides a balance between durability and road contact, helping to enhance stability and braking on packed snow and glazed ice. Compliance with TÜV and Ö-Norm V5117 ensures the chain's design and materials correspond to recognised safety and performance requirements. The chain's configuration is intended for relatively straightforward fitting to drive wheels and for temporary winter use where increased traction is required.

Suitable for

• Passenger cars and light vehicles that require snow chains on drive wheels
• Driving on packed snow, compacted ice and slippery winter roads
• Short-term use when conditions demand improved traction and braking

Key specifications

• Link thickness: 9 mm
• Compliance: TÜV and Ö-Norm V5117 standards
• Application: Fitted to drive wheels for improved winter traction
• Intended use: Temporary use on snow and ice

How to use

Fit the snow chains only to the vehicle's drive wheels, following the vehicle and chain manufacturer's fitting instructions. Ensure wheels are on a stable, flat surface and engage parking brake before fitting. Lay the chain beside the tyre, drape it over the tyre tread and connect the fastenings as specified by the chain instructions. After initial fitting, drive a short distance and retighten the chains to achieve correct tension. Remove the chains when driving on clear roads to avoid unnecessary wear to both chains and tyres.

Usage recommendations

Use the chains only where permitted and recommended by local regulations and by the vehicle manufacturer. Regularly inspect the chains for wear or damage and replace if links are deformed, excessively worn, or broken. Observe speed limits recommended for snow chain use and avoid prolonged driving on bare pavement to extend chain life and protect road surfaces.
