      Answer This Question

      A:  The opening of the Everbilt 5/16 in. x 20 ft. Grade 70 Yellow Zinc Plated Steel Tow Chain with Grab Hooks is 7/16 in.

      by|Jul 30, 2021

        A:  7/16. You can hook at any link further up the chain if looped and it will hold under load.

        by|Jul 25, 2021

        A:  Yes it can as any chain that’s worth having can

        by|Jul 26, 2021

          A:  Yes, I have shorten my chain before and it didn't slip at all.

          by|Jul 29, 2021

            A:  Yes it chokes up fine! Great chains. I bought 2, went back and got 2 more!!

            by|Jul 26, 2021

              A:  The hook is able to fit over the links.

              Answer This Question

              A:  A decent pair of bolt cutters would probably make short work of this chain.

                A:  Would be difficult to cutt with bolt cutters, chain is very heavy duty.

                by|Jun 26, 2019

                A:  It would require a large set of bolt cutters but it could be cut.

                by|Mar 31, 2021

                A:  The average bolt cutters could not cut these chains. Any lock you buy would be the weak link for your needs.

                by|Jun 26, 2019

                  A:  This would not be easy to cut with bolt cutters, but it would be possible.

                  by|Jun 26, 2019

                    A:  Marketed as a "tow chain" this would be carbon steel; alloy would be harder for the size/weight. Even within the grading spec, the mfr has leeway over what steel to use, so hardness can still vary a lot. That said, I've seen reports of high quality USA-made 5/16 grade 70 tow chain requiring 36" bolt cutters and ideal positioning (e.g. concrete pad for one handle of the bolt cutter) taking 20 seconds of energetic work for a 180 lb man to break; a vise and Sawzall can get through 2 links in 6-8 minutes and 2-3 blades. YMMV but I'd assume a made-in-China chain should be good for at least half that.

                      A:  Not easily it is very heavy duty.

                      by|Jun 26, 2019

                      A:  Straps may work out better but the chains are very useful

                      by|Sep 8, 2020

                        A:  It will easily secure a generator.

                        by|Jun 1, 2020

                        A:  I would say no. But I don't want to cut it so not sure.

                          Strong, Long chain at great price
                          This chain is very well made, very strong, and has a good length of 20 feet. I shopped around and The Home Depot sells this at a very good price value. While it is a "tow" chain, I used it to pull out 20 year old plants from my yard that had huge root fields. Worked perfectly on every plant!

                            Great Quality, Superior Durability - So Many Uses!
                            I restore vehicles and work on friend's cars in my garage, so there's never a shortage of uses for a chain. This chain is perfect for any job and my favorite use so far was pulling out rose bushes! With it's locking hooks on each side, one this guy is wrapped a couple times around a bush, then hooked up to a truck, it makes a long job into a very short one - after 16 rose bushes I was more than pleased with the many hours this chain saved me.
