Hendrickson’s new Haulmaax EX has been unveiled as the next generation in heavy-duty rubber suspensions.

Available in capacities of 40,000, 46,000, and 52,000 lb., Haulmaax EX is approved for a variety of vocational applications.

Features include more vertically angled bolster springs to carry the majority of the payload in compression during an empty or lightly loaded condition, in the name of an improved ride quality.

As the load increases, ride and stability characteristics of the suspension change to meet the application’s needs without an abrupt change in suspension feel, Hendrickson says.

The Haulmaax EX suspension geometry is also optimized to provide increased site rating, increased capacity ranges and improved durability.
