Brake application guidelines from Dana
Dana Corporation’s Commercial Vehicle Systems division has published a new Dana Spicer Brake Application Guidelines Manual, providing customers with a useful tool for determining Dana Spicer brake applications for U.S. and Canadian heavy- and medium-duty commercial vehicles.
This manual is categorized by vocation. The nomenclature section describes the brake assembly in detail, including shoes, spiders, springs, and camshafts. Air disc brake basics are also covered, as well as the fundamentals of typical air brake system components and how they interact. A glossary with more than 160 of the most common brake component and drivetrain definitions is also provided.
The manual, publication number BRAG-0300 (7/02), can be downloaded from the Roadranger website, www.roadranger.com, along with additional product and literature information.
