How the Ultimate 5th Wheel Safety Chains Work

Andersen Hitches Safety Chain Kits infographic for the Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection, featuring three secure towing options: Standard Safety Chains (#3230), Safety Chains with Plate (#3249) for easy installation, and Safety Chains with Rail Tabs (#3215) for rail-mounted hitches. Each kit includes grade 70 chains with a 18,000 lb rating per chain, providing extra security and heavy-duty strength for gooseneck and rail-mount towing setups.

When towing with a gooseneck-mounted Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection, safety chains may be required to create a secondary attachment between the trailer and truck. Because the Ultimate mounts to a 2-5/16" gooseneck ball instead of traditional 5th wheel rails, safety chains help ensure secure, DOT-compliant towing.

Andersen offers multiple safety chain options based on your truck setup:

1. Safety Chains with Rail Tabs attach directly to industry-standard 5th wheel rails.

2. Safety Chains with Anchor Plate use a dedicated bed-mounted plate to create secure attachment points in trucks without rails.

3. Standalone Bed-Mounted Safety Chain Kits provide attachment for truck beds with factory anchor points.

Each configuration is engineered for proper length and turning clearance, delivering stable, compliant gooseneck 5th wheel towing without dragging or binding.
