Take a Look at the Uses and Properties Relating to the Thule K-summit

By Hilary Vickers


Thule is well known for its superior types of innovative vehicular racks and car accessories. The manufacturer is now offering high-quality snow chains tires with the Thule K-Summit product range. With these chains, you can travel to any destination with safety and comfort in the snowy weather.

The chains are appropriate for a wide range of passenger vehicles. Additionally, you can use these chains for those vehicles that have a limited wheel clearance. The company has tested the chains in the Italian Alps where they were found very safe and easy to fit.

The snow chains are manufactured manganese nickel alloy steel that is hardened and durable. The company manually manufactures the tires in Italy. Special steel enables tougher molecular structures that give extra strength in the snow. The D-shaped and reduced clearance links make the chains last longer with more grip.

These chains are automatically adjusted under different temperatures using the steel springing mechanism. The manufacturer uses materials such as aerospace plastic plates and strong metal core fasteners for longer life and security. The color-coding assembly system allows users to fit the chains in any light conditions.

The installation process begins with laying the two grip plates on the tire treads. This is followed by attaching the central unit to the lug nut with the available tool. Finally, you must activate the ratchet system. These chains automatically adjust and tighten as needed when you start driving the car. The chains include 17 mm and 19 mm adapters and the company provides 21 mm adapters when requested.

You can acquire the right size of the Thule K-Summit chains with some easy steps. You need to read the instructions manual to ensure there are no limitations on the use of snow tire chains. Check the three dimensions on the tires, which include the width, aspect ratio, and diameter of the wheel. The right size of the chains can then be found on the company's website.
