{"product_id":"the-hauler-g80-v-chain-tow-bridle","title":"The Hauler | G80 V-Chain Tow Bridle, 9,260 lb Working Load, 5\/16 in x 3 ft","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecovery work is a calculation about what happens when the load is heavier than expected. The Hauler begins with the number that governs every other decision: 9,260 lbs of working load limit, backed by a 4:1 design factor. The chain itself is 5\/16 inch G80 manganese steel, three feet per leg in a V-bridle configuration, which is the geometry that turns a single recovery point into two and spreads the pull across the frame instead of concentrating it on one hook. Nothing in this description is decorative. A towing bridle is the component that decides whether a recovery ends with a vehicle on a flatbed or with a hook through a windscreen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrade 80 is the rating that matters, and the product carries the DOT-related certification to match. Galvanising follows the assembly rather than the wire, so the finish covers the links, the RTJ cluster hook and the D-shackle as a single sealed surface — the reason this chain still looks like a tool after a winter of road salt and wet gravel rather than a rusted question mark. The finish is also why it can be left on a truck bed or in an open trailer between jobs without the maintenance ritual that uncoated chain demands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hook set is chosen for the messiness of real vehicles rather than for a catalogue photograph. R hooks, T hooks and the large J hooks cover frame slots, axle tubes and factory tie-down points across the makes you are most likely to be pulling, so the same bridle works on a sedan, a crossover and a light truck without adapters. Weighing 19.8 lbs, it is heavy enough to feel like something that will hold, and manageable enough for one person to throw, hook and tension without help.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA chain does not negotiate. It either holds the load or it tells you, very loudly, that you chose the wrong one.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003chr style=\"margin:22px 0;border:0;border-top:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:26px 0 12px 0;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"padding-left:20px;margin:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e✦ \u003cstrong\u003e9,260 lbs working load limit:\u003c\/strong\u003e rated capacity per bridle with a 4:1 design factor, so the failure point sits well beyond the working figure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e✦ \u003cstrong\u003eGrade 80 manganese steel:\u003c\/strong\u003e the tensile grade required for load-bearing recovery and lifting hardware, DOT-related certified.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e✦ \u003cstrong\u003e5\/16 inch, 3 ft V-bridle:\u003c\/strong\u003e two legs from a single attachment point, distributing pull across the chassis instead of one hook.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e✦ \u003cstrong\u003eR, T and large J hook set:\u003c\/strong\u003e covers frame slots, axle tubes and factory tie-down points without adapters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e✦ \u003cstrong\u003eHot-dip galvanised finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e applied after assembly so links, hook and D-shackle share one sealed, rust-resistant surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e✦ \u003cstrong\u003eRTJ cluster hook and D-shackle included:\u003c\/strong\u003e the full rigging assembly arrives ready to attach, not in pieces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e✦ \u003cstrong\u003e19.8 lbs with 3% tolerance:\u003c\/strong\u003e heavy enough to be credible in the hand, light enough for one person to handle unaided.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:26px 0 12px 0;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style:none;padding:0;margin:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e V-chain tow bridle with RTJ cluster hook and D-shackle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorking load limit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9,260 lbs (secure load)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign factor:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e G80 manganese steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChain length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 ft per assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19.8 lbs \/ 9 kg, plus or minus 3%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Galvanised, rust resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHooks included:\u003c\/strong\u003e R hooks, T hooks, large J hooks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e RTJ cluster hook, D-shackle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e CE, Grade 80 DOT related\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold galvanised\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:9px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mainland China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-applications\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:26px 0 12px 0;\"\u003eApplication Scenarios\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hauler is built for vehicles that get stuck in places a tow truck cannot easily reach. On a farm, it connects a tractor or a UTV to a bogged trailer, spreading load across the frame rather than tearing at a single bumper point. For roadside recovery and towing operators, the G80 certification and 9,260 lb limit put it inside the range of a light commercial tow without stepping up to heavy rigging. Off-road drivers use the bridle to equalise a winch pull across two chassis points, which is what keeps a recovery from bending a unibody. It also serves straightforward lifting and moving work — dragging machinery onto a trailer, repositioning a shipping container anchor, or moving a vehicle that will not roll under its own power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:26px 0 12px 0;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What does a 4:1 design factor mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003eThe chain is built to a breaking strength roughly four times its working load limit.
