Brakes axles, square                                       Braked axles with steel suspension

FUNCTION braked axles, square
The suspension is effected by four rubber elements pressed in between the square tubes offset from another by 45°.

FUNCTION braked axles with steel suspension
The suspension element here is a torsion rod of spring steel that is completely housed in the axle tube. Practically infinite adjustment of the trailing arms is possible via the involute toothing on the torsion rod. Advantage: Variable ride height adjustment during production of the vehicle.

PLEASE NOTE:
The axle must be adjusted accordingly for trailers with special operating conditions, e.g. hazardous goods trailers (wheelbase over 1,000 mm), trailers for moving loads, bus service trailers, light comemrcial vehicle trailers.
