ABUS Hardened Steel 10KS 3/8" Thick Square Security Chain

This protected my e-bikes on the back of my fifth wheel for a 2 month cross country 10K mile road trip. I never worried about them getting ripped off cuz the thickness of the links are pretty intimidating. I’m really glad I went with this!

Pretty decent, and long enough. I'm not a fan of the cover, though. I cut the cover in two places so that the chain could be looped onto itself. I feel that ABUS could have thought of this and made the cover in sections. The cover gets pretty trashed once cut open. It's a weighty chain, not too expensive, fairly easy to use and functional.

Great quality 👌

I have used this chain on two generators. While no chain is totally impermeable to cutting, this chain will give a thief a real run for their time. There are some good YouTube movies on this chain. One of my generators is in a semi-permanent place for work. In both cases with generators out back, I did the following: dug a nice big hole about 2ft deep and 12" in diameter. I put a thick piece of bent rebar through the bottom link and positioned it in the hole. I filled the hole up with cement. It will take a truck to pull the slug of chain and cement from the ground. Later, I put a 6" slab over the same area as a flat working surface for the generators. Unless someone shows up with a rather powerful metal cutting diamond blade or disk, it is not likely they will get off with much of anything. The lock through the links is no weak point either since my lock smith uses the same lock and chain to secure his tools in his truck. If you own a motorcycle this is the perfect chain. A lot of the fancy looking chain in HomeDepot or Lowe's can be cut in seconds with a bolt cutter. Not ABUS. "Snatch and run" will not work with this chain. If you have a shed or the like that you keep equipment in, I would suggest pulling up some boards, digging a hole, and follow the directions above. A neighbor of mine had 5 chain saws stolen in the course of five minutes when he was out. Had he run 6+ft of this chain through the saw handles with one end in cement, nothing could have happened. The crooks just walked into the shed and snatched up the five saws. Easy theft. Also, no one has been caught either. At home you can even create a security point for bikes by the method above. For me burying the chain in cement is key. There are no easy weak points. They can't bend or cut an eye bolt because there is not one. There are hurricane ties that would also work nicely since they used those in houses buried in cement. But, this chain is largely hacksaw proof.

Seems incredibly sturdy and strong, nice length too. I couldn't find anything this length and thickness for a better price. It came quickly and met all expectations.

Good chain

I think the bad guys will have to bring a grinder for this one.

The chain was what I expected except the inner dimension of the links was too small for my ulock shackle. Couldn't use and had to return. Original shipment was quick and return went well.

Se ve de muy buena calidad y resistente

Excelente, uso esta cadena en conjunto con el candado Abus 26/80 disk desde hace casi 2 años y funcionan muy bien, no le ha pasado nada siquiera a la tela que la cubre, esta algo corta, unos 60cm pero justo cierra mi portón.

ABUS is best. The woven covering is strong and very flexible. Good for passing the chain through and around the two electric bikes I'm locking up. The dimensions stated about the links, is for the last link on one end. The rest of the links are shorter about 1/2 inch. Very heavy but with electric bikes and our good racks and a trailer we use, makes light work to carry it along. This 10 foot is a good length to lock up two electric bikes. Which are generally larger than nonelectric bikes. I recommend this product.

Almost went for the 12KS but I'm glad I didn't. The 10KS is still a large chain with sizeable links and is incredibly sturdy, well, made, and heavy. I originally bought this to lock up mountain bikes in the back of my truck but I'd confidently use this on anything I'd want to try and keep safe. I honestly feel like the 12KS would be overkill. Overall I'm very happy with this chain and I'd buy another in a heartbeat if needed.

Good quality though quite heavy. I use this to keep a storage locker secure.
