Suspension System Specifications
In the suspension system section, the Modul Drum Brake Axle Type B is designed with an E distance of 285 mm and reinforcement component thickness ranging from 35 to 87 mm. The precise positioning of the air spring bracket, along with calculations for both unloaded and fully loaded (air-sprung) conditions, improves stability, simplifies installation, and reduces component wear.
These combined features make the axle a reliable option for transportation fleets that require not only heavy load capacity but also durability, safety, and consistent performance over time.
