Abstract

A stud link for a tire chain is provided. The stud link includes a link body that has at least one attachment opening for further links of the chain. Longitudinal surfaces of the link body form a tire contact surface, and also form a wear surface beyond which at least one profiled element projects. At least a portion of the profiled element extends at an angle to a longitudinal central plane of the stud link.
