Driven Solid Beam Axle
Robust design despite low weight
Key Facts
LightLow weight thanks to aluminum housing and welded crown gearEffectiveHigh efficiencySilentLow noise exitation thanks to optimized gearing
Driven solid beam axles are preferably used as rear axles in pick-up trucks, vans, and other LCVs. Here, the robust design also takes over the chassis function in addition to transmitting the torque. Besides, control arms and springs take effect at the axle tubes. They link the axle with the vehicle body and thus ensure force transmission between the wheels and the vehicle body.
