Cartbolt® Snow Blower Tire Chains

More Traction. More Control. Better Winter Performance.

When packed snow, ice, and slush make it difficult for your snow blower to maintain traction, the Cartbolt® Snow Blower Tire Chains provide additional grip where you need it most.

Made from durable steel with a corrosion-resistant zinc finish, these heavy-duty tire chains wrap securely around compatible snow blower tires to improve traction and control in challenging winter conditions.

Whether you're clearing a steep driveway, packed snow, or icy surfaces, Cartbolt® tire chains help your snow blower stay planted and keep moving.

Why You'll Love It

Stronger Snow & Ice Traction

Cross-chain coverage creates additional gripping points across the tire tread to help improve traction on snow, packed snow, ice, and slush.

Heavy-Duty Steel Construction

Durable metal links are designed to withstand regular winter use and the repeated load of snow blower operation.

Corrosion-Resistant Finish

Zinc-coated steel helps resist rust and moisture caused by snow, slush, road salt, and wet winter storage conditions.

Secure, Tight Fit

Reliable chain connectors help keep the chains positioned around the tire during operation.

Improved Snow Blower Control

Additional traction can help reduce tire spin and improve control when pushing through heavier snow or working on uneven winter surfaces.

Easy Seasonal Installation

Install the chains before heavy snowfall and remove them when winter is over.

Available Tire Sizes

Choose the chain size that matches the tire size printed on your snow blower tire sidewall.

Current size options:

• 4.10-6

• 13 × 4.10-6

• 15 × 5.00-6

• 15 × 6.00-6

• 16 × 6.50-8

• 16 × 7.50-8

Important: Always check the tire size molded or printed on the sidewall before ordering.

Do not select chains based only on wheel diameter or visual appearance.

How to Read Your Tire Size

A snow blower tire marked:

16 × 6.50-8

generally indicates:

• 16" — Approximate overall tire diameter

• 6.50" — Approximate tire width

• 8" — Wheel / rim diameter

All three measurements matter when choosing the correct tire chain.

Heavy-Duty Chain Links

The Cartbolt® tire chains use durable steel links designed for demanding winter conditions.

The strong link construction helps provide:

• Reliable traction

• Stable tire coverage

• Repeated seasonal use

• Better grip under load

• Long-lasting winter performance

The rounded steel links are designed to sit securely across the tire tread without excessively bulky components.

Cross-Chain Traction Design

Multiple cross chains run across the tire tread, creating additional contact points with the ground.

This pattern can help improve grip on:

• Fresh snow

• Packed snow

• Icy driveways

• Slush

• Inclines

• Uneven winter surfaces

As the tire rotates, different sections of chain continually make contact with the ground to improve traction.

Helps Reduce Tire Spin

Snow blower tires can lose grip when snow becomes deeper, wetter, or more compacted.

Tire chains provide a more aggressive contact surface between the tire and the ground, helping reduce unnecessary wheel spin.

This can make it easier to:

• Push through deeper snow

• Maintain forward movement

• Work on inclined driveways

• Control the machine on packed snow

• Maintain traction during heavier clearing

Corrosion-Resistant Zinc Finish

Snow equipment is constantly exposed to moisture.

The zinc-coated surface helps protect the steel chain from everyday exposure to:

• Snow

• Ice

• Slush

• Water

• Road salt

• Winter moisture

After use, allowing the chains to dry before storage can further help extend service life.

Built for Winter Performance

Cartbolt® Snow Blower Tire Chains are designed for demanding seasonal conditions.

They are ideal for:

• Residential driveways

• Sloped driveways

• Sidewalks

• Packed snow

• Heavy snow

• Icy conditions

• Rural properties

• Winter equipment preparation

Easy Installation

For best results, install both chains before operating the snow blower.

Step 1 — Lay Out the Chains

Place each chain flat on the ground and remove twists or tangles.

Step 2 — Position Over the Tire

Drape the chain evenly over the tire with the cross links centered across the tread.

Step 3 — Connect the Ends

Secure the inner and outer connectors according to the chain configuration.

Step 4 — Adjust the Fit

Make sure the chain is evenly centered around the tire.

Step 5 — Check Tension

Chains should fit securely without excessive looseness.

Step 6 — Recheck After Moving

Drive the snow blower forward a short distance, stop the machine, and check chain positioning again.

Adjust if necessary before regular operation.

Secure & Balanced Fit

Correct installation is important for both traction and chain life.

A properly installed chain should:

• Sit evenly across the tread

• Remain centered on the tire

• Have similar tension on both sides

• Avoid excessive slack

• Clear nearby machine components

Do not operate with loose, twisted, or improperly positioned chains.

When Tire Chains Are Most Useful

Tire chains can provide additional traction when your snow blower struggles with:

Deep Snow

Added grip helps the machine continue moving through heavier accumulation.

Packed Snow

Metal cross links provide additional biting surfaces against compacted snow.

Ice

Chains can improve traction compared with rubber tires alone.

Sloped Driveways

Extra grip can help provide improved control when working on inclines.

Wet & Slushy Conditions

Chains help maintain contact when tires begin slipping on wet winter surfaces.

Pair Installation Recommended

The package contains 2 tire chains, allowing both drive tires to be equipped at the same time.

Installing chains on both sides helps provide:

• More balanced traction

• More predictable handling

• Even drive performance

• Better directional control

Avoid using only one chain unless specifically recommended by your equipment manufacturer.

Important Compatibility Notice

Snow blower tire chains are size-specific.

Before purchasing, check the exact tire size printed on your existing tire.

Confirm:

Tire Diameter × Tire Width × Rim Diameter

Available configurations include:

4.10-6
13 × 4.10-6
15 × 5.00-6
15 × 6.00-6
16 × 6.50-8
16 × 7.50-8

Tire shape and tread depth can vary even when nominal dimensions are similar, so always check clearance after installation.

Clearance Check

Before operating the snow blower, rotate the tire manually and make sure the chains do not contact:

• Fenders

• Axles

• Drive components

• Brake components

• Body panels

• Cables

• Other nearby hardware

Adequate clearance is required for safe use.

Maintenance Tips

To help extend the life of your Cartbolt® tire chains:

• Remove packed snow after use

• Rinse away road salt when necessary

• Allow chains to dry before storage

• Check connectors regularly

• Inspect links for excessive wear

• Straighten twisted sections before installation

• Store in a dry location during the off-season

Replace chains if links become severely worn, cracked, bent, or damaged.

Safety Instructions

Before installing or adjusting tire chains:

• Turn off the snow blower

• Remove the ignition key when applicable

• Disconnect the spark plug or power source when recommended

• Place the machine on a stable surface

• Wear protective gloves

• Keep hands away from moving components

Never adjust tire chains while the snow blower is operating.

After installation, operate at appropriate snow blower speeds and periodically check chain tension.
