As part of Intraax, Hendrickson provides the most efficient S-cam brake available in the industry. The integrated axle, brake and suspension design provides the shortest S-cam in the industry and allows for beam mounting of brake chambers and S-cam spherical bearings. The result is more responsive brakes with less deflection in the system. This improved brake stroke provides benefits of long stroke brake chambers without the added cost as well as unmatched fade resistance and performance with long stroke brake chambers. For extended service brake options, Hendrickson-offers HXSTM Brakes.

Trailer Ready-To-RollTM (RTR) Suspension Options

Available with Intraax, RTR options provide higher levels of system integration and fleet productivity. Hendrickson offers a full line of dressed axle  including: aluminum, ductile iron, and ADI hubs; CentrifuseTM and cast drums; brake chambers and automatic slack adjusters.

For specifiers demanding reduced maintenance concepts, RTR provides options like the Con Met PreSetTM hub system that can reduce or eliminate costly downtime. Other RTR options that can improve your bottom line include:
