■
Structural beams and cross beams
— Advanced structural beams utilize premium materi-
als for high durability and reliability. Structural beams include integrated end caps that form
a solid connection with the square cross tube to form a rigid torsion system for improved
stability and control.
■
Unique suspension geometry
— Optimized suspension geometry contributes to more
than twice the roll stability of competitive air suspensions, helps improve handling and roll
stiffness for expanded applications, and significantly controls suspension-induced driveline
vibration.
■
Large volume air springs
— Reduce noise, vibration and harshness to cab, chassis and
body equipment for reduced total vehicle maintenance. Also reduce air pressure required
to lift and support loads.
■
QUIK-ALIGN
®
— Hendrickson’s proven QUIK-ALIGN axle alignment system helps save time
and money – offers a fast method to ensure proper alignment to reduce maintenance time
and help extend tire life.
■
D-pin axle connection and clamp group
— Reduces stress input into the axle housing by
transferring the torsional loads to the integrated stabilizer system, which helps extend axle
and joint service life.
■
Heavy-duty shock absorbers
— Positioned and tuned for optimum damping characteris-
tics and also protect air springs from overextension.
■
Premium heavy-duty torque rods and bushings
— The three-rod configuration reduces
axle stress, welding and complexity. Optimized configuration contributes to exceptional
handling. Premium rubber bushings increase service life and resistance to bushing walkout.
