Benefits for the Trailer Manufacturer

· Easy attachment to the chassis and simple transversal and longitudinal bracing due to the practical and solid design of the mounting brackets
· Use of high-strength, weldable mounting bracket material permits a homogeneous weld without the need for special welding instructions
· Maintenance-free, adjustable longitudinal torque arms supported by rubber/metal bushings (1 x per axle) permit simple, precise track adjustment. This possibility simplifies the attachment of the suspension to the chassis and has a positive influence on the service life of the tires
· Available with suspension system loads from 9 to 48 tonnes in single, tandem or tridem axle configuration (higher loads on request)

Benefits for the End-User

· Higher payloads due to the use of weight-optimized, sturdy components
· Good maneuverability of the tractor/trailer combination thanks to short wheel bases (1,360 mm).
· Long service life of the equalizers due to the support by brass bushings
· Efficient axle load distribution by high compensation travel. This also means a uniform braking force distribution, and consequently a uniform brake lining wear, higher vehicle stability and safer riding Performance
· Longer service life of the springs and mounting brackets through the use of low-wear, exchangeable spring sliding plates
