Torque Arms
Torque arm bushings are 20% thicker.
Fixed arm is one-piece cast design with no welds to break.
Underslung
Ideal for low-mounting applications, these suspensions position the axle above the springs to accomodate height requirements. The underslung option delivers the same economical benefits available with the basic straddle mount and undermount configurations.
Hardened Steel Wear Pads
Hardened steel wear pads at critical spring contact points reduce hanger wear and prevent hanger failure.
Thicker Leaf Spring Contact Points
20% thicker leaf spring contact points for increased durability.
BLACK ARMOUR® Metal Treatment
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
