How To ID Your Alpine Series Tire Chain

January 7, 2017

Need to figure out which stock # of Alpine Series chains you have?  The process is easy:

1) When you have the chains laid out in front of you, locate the red draw chain.

2) On one end of the draw chain is a black rubber tightener, on the other end is a flat, golden, c-shaped link.

There will be a number stamped on that link.  If there are two digits in the number the chain is from the 1500 series Alpine Premier.

To determine your stock number for these, simply put 15 in front of the two digits marked on the c-link.  For example, if “40” were stamped on the link, the part number would be 1540.

If there are three digits in the number then it is from the Alpine Sport or Super Sport series.

The first digit is 3 for an Alpine Sport and the first digit is 5 for an Alpine Super Sport.

For example, if you see “327” you have a 2327, or if you see “532” you have a 2532.

Please check the following reference chart for easy identification.  The numbers on the left are what is stamped on the link, and the numbers on the right are the Laclede stock numbers.

After you’ve determined your stock number, if you need to find out which tire sizes are listed fits for your chain you can check Alpine Premier(1500) here : https://lacledechain.com/product/laclede-alpine-premier/

For an Alpine Sport or Alpine Super Sport the fits are listed here: http://www.lacledechain.com/product/laclede-alpine-super-sport-commercial-truck-chains/

Since actual tire chain fitments can vary due to dimensional variances in tire manufacturing always pre-fit tire chains before initial use to check for proper fitment.
