How they work?

They simply stick to the snow and ice. This sticking effect is created by the fabric absorbing surface moisture forming a suction effect and contact with a relatively drier surface which in turn provides the grip.

The same effect can be created by push certain fabrics like wool against ice – try it and see what happens! Some parts of the world put a specific winter snow tyres on for winter months. Winter snow tyres work on the same principle to create their grip, however Textile Snow Chains have the benefit of a larger surface area than winter snow tyres.
