Gigant axle with LongLife dualdisc

longer travel - shorter service

Improved control of critical situations

The most important component in a commercial vehicle is the brake system.
Reliability and high braking power have top priority.
Today, these criteria are fulfilled by almost all commercial vehicle brakes.
However, these systems still have weaknesses:
  • The internally ventilated brake discs tend to develop heat cracking
  • Replacing the discs is usually awkward
  • The complicated floating callipers increase the weight
  • The brake is subjected to a high degree of wear
  •  

    New standard in brake technology

    The unconventional idea of using two single brake discs means that heat cracking is no longer a problem.
    The simple design of the fixed calliper saves approx. 50 kg in weight for a standard trailer.
    Brake service is child’s play because the discs are simply pulled off and pushed on the hub.

    Brakes in endurance run

    The system is now in endurance run after comprehensive calculations, simulations
    and hundreds of hours in a test rig during which the new brake was tested thoroughly.

    The advantages of the gigant Euro axle with LongLife dualdisc at a glance:

  • Robust Design
  • Weight reduced of at least 16 kg per axle
  • Brake discs resistant to heat cracking
  • Very short immobilisation during service
  • Low spare parts costs

     

    Preferably on the road!

    The use of the new brake with dualdisc ensures that vehicles stay where they belong – on the road.
