What load will these chains bear?

3000 pounds per chain. I use them with my weight distribution hitch set up, pulling a 30FT coachman.

I use them for a cart to load in my van that I can't lift by myself. The ad states that they will handle 1500 lbs however.

Maybe. I think 40# would be right at the upper limit it could hold. I'd replace the included screws with longer heavier duty lag bolts. The bracket would be the weak link in the chain. It's made of approximately 1/8" plate bent to shape.

I've used them to pull a full stack on the cable machine with no problems! 200lbs was the stack.

I would guess that it would hold that...my first one arrived un-assembled, and one of the chains didn't have a clip, so I couldn't put it together...after my bad review I was sent another one, but have not used it as I had already come up with an alternative that I preferred by the time it got here...it also seemed like it had come straight from China, which made me a little weary, but I tend to be a bit paranoid with stuff like that :P :)

Don't know, but would guess that is close. On second pair for plow tractor, good medium duty set of chains

Yes it would provided you have used equipment capable of handling the load. I have done something similar and have had no issues with it.

I believe I have. It's not super easy to do as it's supposed to be a heavy duty chain but it is possible with the right tools. You'll definitely need to put some force behind it though.

I would also recommend checking the online tire size recommendations. I believe these chains will be too large for your tires, even with the tighteners.

I cant say for sure, but I use mine for loading furniture into my trailer. I haven't had any trouble. I though the ad said it would handle up to 900 pounds

They wouldn't be very strong that way. They're designed to carry a load while mounted on a vertical surface.

According to the information provided by Curt, the minimum break force is 7,500 pounds. When the cables are coiled, thelength is about 12 inches, however I have to extend them somewhat to connect to my vehicles hitch. I really like them, for they provide a really neat appearance because everything stays taut, and there is nothing hanging down as is typical when chains are used for securing. If I had it to do again I would make the same choice.

1200lb capasity. The rings are welded so these are a bit stronger than you would think.

On all your questions there is one answer: YES (including if they need to be powered up for chain)

They glide just fine under load. In my application they were loaded with about 200 lbs. one thing you should expect is sagging. With your load at full extention expect about an inch of sag at the far end.
