The König K-Slim is the traditional mounted snow chain destined to passenger cars with strongly restricted wheelhouses.
The product has been designed with clearance in mind and it comes with a complete list of features which are typically uncommon on manual tensioning snow chains: starting with the patented König Micro-Adjust, a full coverage cross-section design based on low-profile twisted links and the Wheel-Shield Level 2 protection system.
The König K-Slim snow chain is a supplementary grip device certified according to Ö-Norm V5117 and EN 16662-1 thus fulfilling any Winter Equipment legal requirement.
Once the snow chain is fitted on the wheel, the manual tensioning requires the driver to stop after a few dozen meters to retension the snow chains manually. The fixation of the chain after mounting and tensioning is provided by the elastic end red hook.
1 of 6The König Wheel-Shield Level 2 offers an effective alloy wheel protection from the typical scratches of unprotected snow chains.
With the Wheel-Shield level 2 side hooks are covered by a specific set of nylon bumpers which detatch side elements from the rim profile.
2 of 6To maximize the tensioning and the results of the micro-adjust, the product comes with a two shortening hooks.
3 of 6Adjusting links are connected to the front closing hook and they allow the front side of the chain to get smaller or larger to allow a more precise snow chain fit on different tyre sizes, profiles and wear level.
4 of 6The K-Slim is very light and to improve the rigidity of the terminal side chain segments, these are shrink-wrapped to making the mounting process easier.
5 of 6The micro-adjustability function on traditional fitting snow chains is represented by the König Micro-Adjust and locking devices paired together: the trigger of the locking device controls the sliding of the Micro-Adjust plastic cones and locks with approximately 8mm snaps.
The König Micro-Adjust technology provides an easy-to-handle and effective tensioning solution, 3 time more precise than the conventional tensioning chains.

The König K-Slim cross-section are composed by low profile 45° twisted links whose maxiumum thickess is 7mm.
Also the connections triangular rings are twisted and their geometries fit perfectly with the twisted links.

The ground-up fitting system is based on the flexible cable sliding on the ground behind the wheel, allowing all the chain parts get connected without moving the vehicle.
1 of 3In order to respect the 7mm max thickness, the flexible cable connection has been completely redesigned flat.
2 of 3In order to respect the 7mm max thickness, the inner connections between flexible cable and cross-sections are designed to stay flat against the tyre side wall.
3 of 3
It's traditional and it's the first 7mm snow chain released on the market and which created a new segment in the snow chain business
It's full of proprietary patented solutions allowing the applications on passenger cars with restricted clearance
Compatible with vehicles with 7mm clearance requirements (EN16662-1:2020 Class 7mm)
