Bendix’s trailer air disc brake

Sep 15, 2016

Bendix’s ADB22X-LT air disc brake engineered for trailers has a 23,000-pound brake rating and weighs 40 pounds per tandem axle lighter than its companion ADB22X air disc brake, helping to deliver increased payload capacity. The ADB22X-LT brake features a pad designed with 8 percent more wearable volume and up to a 40 percent improvement in wear rate, while its internal self-adjustment mechanism helps support longer service life by facilitating improved pad life and reduced brake drag. A virtual absence of brake fade or degradation of stopping power helps increase reliability.
