ABSTRACT:
Safety chain latches remove slack from safety chains attached between towing and towed vehicles in a towing system. In one embodiment, a pivotable retainer element is removably coupled to a remaining portion of the latch body for enabling release of a latched safety line independently of the open or closed position of the retainer element.
