Safety Cables & Chains
Safety cables and chains are required by law and act as a backup connection between your RV and towed vehicle. At The Outdoor Warehouse, we stock DOT-approved safety cables and heavy-duty chains from Blue Ox, Demco, Roadmaster, and Husky.
Choose coiled safety cables to avoid dragging, straight chains for heavy loads, or complete towing kits. For a complete towing system, pair your cables with a tow bar, baseplates, and braking system.
Expert Tips:

- Match cable/chain strength to your trailer’s GVWR.
- Use coiled cables with tow bars to prevent dragging.
