Published in March, Hendrickson says its updated Global Ride Solutions brochure, published in March, highlights a full range of products for the commercial transportation industry around the world. In the recently published 20-page brochure, Itasca, Ill.-based Hendrickson says it taps the color red from its logo as a symbol of more than 95 years of vision, engineering expertise and manufacturing excellence.
The brochure provides an overview of products that the company says supports every major North American heavy-duty truck and trailer manufacturer, as well as many in Europe, Australia, Japan, China, Latin America and Africa. The brochure separates the Hendrickson global product line into convenient sections of “On-highway” – “Truck” and “Trailer,” “Vocational and Heavy-haul” – “Truck” and “Trailer,” “Lift Axle Systems,” “Medium-duty, Bus, RV / Motorhome,” “Bumper and Trim,” ” Trailer – Features and Options,” “Truck – Features” and “Aftermarket.”
The “On-highway” section for trucks features Airtek, a front air suspension and steer axle; the new Softek with a monoleaf spring; and HTB, a light non-torque reactive rear air suspension.
The Vantraax family of lightweight low-maintenance slider systems for dry freight, refrigerated and specialty vans highlights the “On-highway – Trailer” section. Many sport Advanced Axle / Beam Technology (AXT) that teams tapered-beam and large diameter technologies to facilitate increased stiffness and reduced weight.
The “Vocational and Heavy-haul – Truck” section features Primaax air suspension for heavy-haul, construction, emergency / rescue, refuse and mixer trucks; and Haulmaax heavy-duty rubber suspension for construction, logging, refuse and mixer applications.
The new Quaantum family of top-mount and low-ride / liftable primary trailer systems share the spotlight in the “Vocational and Heavy-haul – Trailer” section with Intraax. Together, they cover a wide breadth of configurations from 20,000-pound capacity systems to full 30,000-pound capacity “extreme-duty” systems.
“Lift Axle Systems – Truck / Trailer” highlights the Composilite family of steerable and fixed lift axle systems, along with Hendrickson’s full line of auxiliary axle systems.
