Slider Suspension/Axle System
Capacity: 50,000 lbs. (22,680 kg)
Ride Heights: 16', 16.5', and 17'
Applications: On/Off Highway use and Secondary Road Hauling
The SAF CBX50 Suspension Slider Axle System is the heavy duty slider solution for on/off highway and secondary road hauling. The SAF CBX50 is one of the lightest suspension systems available on the market today using 80 KSI high strength steel to enhance structural rigidity.

Simple exterior void design prolongs bushing life and optimizes ride quality.
The industry's fastest and most convenient axle alignment system requiring no replacement parts or disassembly. Axle alignment is achieved by direct adjustment of the lead screw, requiring less than 250 ft. lbs. (340Nm) of torque.
Patented QWIK RELEASE makes slider adjustment safe, easy, and efficient. Qwik Release allows one person to reposition the slider and eliminates the headache of bound-up pins. Standard on all of our slider suspensions.
PosiLok solves dock walk and squat. It's advanced design minimizes stresses and flexing through a direct slider-suspension-axle load path. Operationally, a positive lock out of components effectively transfers loading from the air bags to the PosiLok mechanism for stable and safe loading / unloading operation.
The BLACK ARMOUR® metal protection process chemically bonds with metal to form a protective skin that is impervious to water and anti-icing chemicals. BLACK ARMOUR® is paint compatible without pre-sanding. If scratched, BLACK ARMOUR® inhibits the spread of creep corrosion.
This eco-friendly metal treatment provides remarkable protection without the added weight and cost of galvanization.
· Guards against environmental factors, e.g. moisture, stone chipping and salt
· No rust penetration
· Long-lasting and reliable retention of value
The SAF standard configuration features a 5.75' diameter axle tube with 16.5' x 7' extended life brake linings, and industry standard tapered spindles.
Available options for the SAF Drum Brake include: Parallel Spindle, Dust Shields, 16.5' x 8.625' Drum Brakes, Fully Dressed Wheel Ends, Automatic Slack Adjusters, Brake Chambers and Tire Inflation Prep.
Optional Parallel Spindles.
Capacity enhanced to meet on/off highway application demands. TOFC compatible with a standard pneumatic dump valve.
Manufactured with 80 KSI yield material and designed with two additional crossmembers, the CBX50 sub-frame is the most robust and structurally rigid 50K slider on the market
Rated for 25,000 lb. capacity per axle for carrying heavier loads.
For automatic fuel and tire savings, spec the Auto PosiLift™ system.
The patented Auto-PosiLift™ feature is programmed through an ABS with lift axle control to automatically lift the front axle when the system senses that only one axle is necessary to carry the load.
Significant Bottom Line Benefits
The SAF Tire Pilot Plus™ is an enhanced tire pressure management system that controls pressure through inflation or high-pressure relief while maintaining equal pressure across all wheels.
Roll formed body rails are manufactured from high strength 80,000 KSI steel.
All the benefits you expect from the world's leading trailer axle disc brake supplier, at a price point that makes sense for commercial fleets of all sizes.
