Hendrickson now provides the HUS (Hendrickson Unitized System) hub on Intraax and Vantraax suspensions. HUS combines SKF Lunar hub technology and Hendrickson's patented neutral-toe axle and a newly designed journal spindle.
HUS hub units are factory-cleaned, sealed for life, and come with seals designed and fitted to prevent damage during hub installation on the spindle. Individually precision-ground to control bearing adjustment to within ±.001", these hub units provide a high-clamp load across the inner rings, ensuring bearing clearance and seal position are maintained even during vehicle cornering.
HUS hubs also benefit from synthetic grease, developed by SKF lubrication specialists to provide maximum performance under all operating conditions.
Intraax and Vantraax feature Hendrickson's rigid axle/beam connection combined with Tri-Functional bushings, resulting in ride softness and stability. The Quik-Align feature provides fast, accurate axle alignment.
Hendrickson offers HUS on 23,000- and 25,000-lb-capacity Intraax primaries and 40,000, 50,000-, and 46,000-lb-capacity Vantraax slider systems. For more details, contact Hendrickson, 800 S Frontage Rd, Woodridge IL 60517-4904.
