Euroflex cast trailer suspension is ArvinMeritor's next generation offering for trailers, matched to Meritor/ROR axles (LM, TA and TM series).
The suspension features cast steel trailing arms, rigidly attached to the axle and providing a protective axle grip that, it claims, extends axle life, due to its stress reduced design.
The direct trailing arm joint eliminates U-bolts, so saving on weight but also maintenance issues. Meanwhile, their use of cast steel allows the trailing arms to be shaped around the brake and wheel end, permitting fitment of disc or drum brakes.
"The suspension offers truck operators reduced cost of ownership through its simple, low maintenance design," comments Matt Wolfe, managing director Trailer Europe.
And he suggests that the system offers superior damping, with reduced vibration and less hammering.
