Kranken Tensioner

Kranken Snow Chain Tensioner

Written by Kate Wade on . Posted in .

The Kranken is a patented, stainless-steel, corrosion-resistant, constant-tension snow chain tensioner designed for utility trucks, bucket trucks, commercial vehicles and heavy-duty fleets operating in demanding winter conditions. Installed in under 30 seconds, its self-balancing mechanism automatically maintains tension as tire chains settle and shift during operation.

Tighten it once, and The Kranken keeps chains tensioned, reducing the need for crews to repeatedly pull over, exit the vehicle and manually re-tighten chains. For utility fleets responding during snow and ice events, fewer roadside adjustments can mean less downtime and less crew exposure to hazardous winter conditions.

Unlike traditional snow chain tensioners that can stretch, crack and wear, requiring frequent replacement, The Kranken is available in two sizes and engineered to withstand road salt, slush, moisture, snow and repeated freeze-thaw cycles. https://thekranken.com
