Ultra RodTM Torque Rods

ultrarod.gif (4717 bytes)

Ultra RodTM takes torque rod technology and durability to a new level. Its computer-optimised design is lighter and more compact than conventional torque rods. Forged construction produces greater structural integrity. A unique bonded bushing prevents rubber-to-metal slippage, eliminating the friction and heat that damage ordinary bushings. One- and two-piece Ultra Rods are completely interchangeable with existing Hendrickson torque rods.

High Confinement Centre Bushing

High Confinement Centre Bushing is integral to the performance of many Hendrickson walking beam suspensions. By encasing a high-density rubber bushing inside a metal sleeve, we combine the outstanding elasticity of our proprietary rubber compound with the high tensile strength of steel. Tests prove this design can double, or even triple, the life of other rubber bushings, meaning far fewer rebushings over the life of your vehicle.

Rubber Beam End Bushings

Rubber beam end bushings provide flexibility between the beam and the axle to absorb the forces of braking and accelerating. The unique Hendrickson Bar Pin Beam End Connection can extend end bushing service life up to 50 percent, and allows up to 3/8" axle alignment at the beam end for improved tire life.

Tri-Functional® Bushings

Tri-Functional Bushings are designed with vertically oriented cavities in solid rubber, molded around an inner metal sleeve. The bushing absorbs vertical and horizontal forces resulting from braking, acceleration, and uneven road surfaces. Featured in Intraax and HT Series trailer suspensions.

Steel Leaf Springs

It is no accident that Hendrickson supplies over 75% of all OEM parabolic taper leaf and multi-leaf springs, 100% of OEM truck and tractor air suspension main support members, and approximately 50% of the trailer springs in North America. That's because our spring design and manufacturing are the most advanced in the world. So when you need steel leaf springs, it makes sense to choose original quality genuine Hendrickson parts.

Rubber Load Cushions

Hendrickson load cushions are engineered for outstanding stability and light weight, and are available in several durometer hardness readings to suit specific applications. Unique internal ribs deflect to absorb road shocks when the vehicle is empty, but compress and stiffen under load to provide stability when needed most.
