Dana’s new axle fights torsionals
DALLAS, Tex. – Dana has brought a new 40,000-lb. tandem-drive axle to market, which the company contends will dramatically reduce torsional vibrations.
The Dana Spicer Torsionally Tuned-40 (model DST40), the latest addition to its Roadranger System, diminishes excessive inter-axle driveline angles and improves overall drivetrain durability and performance, the company says.
It also minimizes size, cost, and weight concerns for fleet owners and drivers.
“That translates into lower maintenance, a better ride, improved satisfaction, and more quality time on the road,” says Steve Slesinski, program manager, Spicer Heavy Axle and Brake Division. n
