The invention relates to an anti-skid chain for tires, in particular for bogie axles, wherein the anti-skid chain has two laterally stable guide chains which, when installed, are arranged to the side of the treads of the tires, wherein the anti-skid chain has a flexible chain mesh which extends between the two guide chains, and wherein at least one guide chain has chain links which are interconnected in an articulated manner by means of joint pins in the circumferential direction, and at least one rotation-blocking element by means of which a maximum joint angle between two interconnected chain links is defined. In order to prevent lateral pulling of the anti-skid chain and, at the same time, to provide an anti-skid chain that is easy to produce, according to the invention, a part of the rotation-blocking element is located on at least one of the joint pins
Anti-skid chain for tires comprising treads, wherein the tires are configured to rotate in a circumferential direction, wherein the anti-skid chain comprises two laterally stable guide chains configured to be arranged to a side of the treads of the tires, wherein the anti-skid chain comprises a flexible chain mesh which extends between the two guide chains, and wherein each guide chain comprises a plurality of annular chain links, wherein each chain link comprises an opening and opposite ends, wherein adjacent chain links are interconnected in an articulated manner by joint pins that are configured to rotate in the circumferential direction (U), wherein the adjacent chain links comprise alternating standing and lying chain links interconnected by the joint pins,
