The Textile Snow Sock from Husky is designed to be used on snow and ice, and is a great alternative to snow chains, Made from a synthetic waterproof fabric, the snow socks gives a consequent increase in the coefficient of friction between wheel and snow or ice surfaces. As a result the Textile socks are effective on snow & ice & gives a much more comfortable ride than traditional snow chains.

The special surface shape, together with the high quality textile used for the tread cover, lets you obtain:

The snow socks composition, high-resistance fabric, improves its durability and makes it absorb water, so as to reduce the amount of lubricant between the parts in contact, which increases the grip.
A significant increase in the total contact area with snow or ice, owing to both the special textile construction and the use of multi-filament thread, with a consequent increase in the coefficient of friction between the wheel and the snowy or icy surface.
The penetration of the relief moulding, caused by the localised fusion of the snow or ice made by the increase in pressure contact in correspondence to the textile knots, which give the textile its exclusive “grip”
A higher adherence between the inside surface of the textile and the tyre, so as to avoid any slippage between sheath and wheel
The limitation of wear on the raised part of the moulding, thus conserving the underlying thread from direct contact with the asphalt when driving on non-snowy roads
Maintenance of a good work ability even in cases of small flaws, thanks to the “run-proof” quality of the textile as a consequence, they are effective on snow and ice, driving and braking are precise and stable, its long life lets you drive comfortably for relatively long distances even on roads where snow and ice patches alternate with dry asphalt.

Safety Instructions:

Safely drive: do not exceed 30mph/ 50 kmh, do not make sudden accelerations or stops.
