Transtyle Rubber Torsion Axle
If you’re looking for a softer, high quality ride, without ongoing maintenance and repairs, look no further than Transtyle Rubber Torsion Axles. Transtyle rubber torsion axles offer a significant improvement to ride quality in comparison to the conventional spring axles because both sides of the axle operate independently from each another. The rubber elastomer springs also help to smooth out the ride by absorbing at lot of the bumps; hence it is also a quieter ride. Our axles are virtually maintenance free and have no leaf springs that will rust.
How does the Rubber Torsion System Work?
Four natural rubber cords within the main structure of the axle beam surround the steel torsion bar. The wheel/hub spindle is attached to a lever, called the torsion arm assembly. This assembly comprises of the torsion arm, torsion bar and spindle. When load is applied to the trailer the torsion arm assembly pivots around the torsion bar, causing a rolling or compressive resistance in the rubber cords inside the axle beam.
