Chains, I don't need no stinking chains

best way to secure track machines when the size or the tracks allows it. Other than that, I used to keep 4 very short chains in my box as well

 

That'd be ok if you were just moving it a couple of clicks up the road for a gold mine, i wouldn't be happy with that set up for a long haul to many things could go wrong.

 

Yeah I was only a local hauler. Excavation company

 

What are the binders rated for?

 

About the same if not more than a chain. Even if using chains, you would need to use a binder. So by not using a chain, you aren’t creating a weak point

 

About is close enough right?

 

Apparently

 

I’ve got chains rated at 6600, 7200, 8800, 11,300, and 15,000. My binders are 15,000 but I’ve had them rated all the way down to 5400. My point is if the binders are sufficient then that load is perfectly safe and legal.
