König XG-12 Pro

Automatic tensioning snow chains for SUVs and Vans looking for additional traction and comfort

Incorporating the most prominent features that large SUVs, Vans and Motorhomes require, the König XG-12 Pro represents a dedicated solution for vehicles belonging to such categories looking for additional grip on winter roads.

The XG-12 Pro is the ideal solution for vehicles not accepting the traditional 16mm snow chains for clearance limitations.

The König XG-12 Pro snow chain is a supplementary grip device certified according to Ö-Norm V5117, EN 16662-1 and Ö-Norm V5119 thus fulfilling any Winter Equipment legal requirement both for light and heavy vehicles (above 3.5t of GVW).

Key features and benefits

König ATC

The König ATC device is based on an elastic cord running on a system of pulleys located inside the tensioning device getting connected by the end user to the Micro-Adjust cable.

As soon as the wheel rotates, the elastic recalls the Micro-Adjust cable and put the chain under tension. The more the vehicle is driven, the more the chain gets properly tightened.

Contrary to other automatic tensioning systems on the market, the König ATC working geometry is transverse versus the wheel, allowing not only a proper tensioning but also centering and balancing the chain while driving.

König Micro-Adjust

The micro-adjustability allows König snow chains to reach a hyper-precise tensioning level according to the different tyre sizes, tyre profiles and wheel combinations.

The micro-adjustability function on traditional fitting snow chains is represented by the 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 approx 8mm snaps.

The Micro-Adjust technology provides an easy-to-handle and effective tensioning solution, 3 time more precise than the conventional tensioning chains.

Adjusting links

Adjusting 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 levels.

Nylon bumpers for Wheel-Shield Level 1

The König Wheel-Shield Level 1 offers a full alloy wheel protection from the typical scratches of unprotected snow chains. All the components which might get in touch with the rim are manufactured in or covered by anti-scratch composite material.

Additionally side hooks are covered by a specific set of nylon bumpers which detatch side elements from the rim profile.

Superior performances

The special cross-section design is based on a double traction bar enforcing the touch-points between the chain and the ground in the middle of the tyre tread and creating a more aggressive diagonal geometry.

All of this results in a superior traction and in a suberb vehicle maneuvrability.

Short pitch fine links

The links of the cross-sections are short-pitch low-profile links with a maximum thickness of 12mm, one of the sturdiest cross-sections in the König range thanks to its optimal forces distribution

2 of 2
Traditional fitting system with flexible cable (ground-up system)

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.
