ELASTOMERS
Hendrickson’s unique elastomer design capabilities result in higher performing, more durable, maintenance-free components.
Why use elastomer in heavy truck suspensions? • Reduce overall suspension weight • Lower component costs • Increase durability in harsh operating environments • Ease of service and replacement Spring Eye Bushings
• Reduce maintenance – requires no lubrication • Provides isolation and damping through energy absorption • Add system compliance for greater articulation and mobility
Spring eye bushings are designed as a system providing enhanced spring performance in the areas of roll stability, ride and durability.
