• A number of design changes have been mode to the SAF low-maintenance trailer "Euro-Axle" to enhance braking efficiency and corrosion resistance. Ball bearings in the brake assembly are now Tefloncoated, as well as chromium plated, to reduce friction and corrosion. Their sockets are forged in steel. An integrally machined exciter ring gear replaces the shrink-fit design for ABS applications, halving the weight. And a grease nipple has been added to the drum-end camshaft bearing so routine lubrication can be carried out independently of brake servicing work. Contact: IMS on 01509 600185.
