Maintenance Free Oil-Immersed Brakes

Maintenance free oil-immersed brakes – These force cooled brakes provide reliable braking without the need for maintenance. Oil–Immersed brake axles last 10,000+ hours without unplanned service interventions.

Advantages of oil-immersed brakes

• Effective performance with no brake fade or excessive noise light pedal effort.
• Sealed unit- any external contamination is eliminated. This protection results in the whole drive axle assembly being resistant to damage from shrink wrap or banding.
• Oil-immersed brake axles last 10,000+ hours without unplanned service interventions. This reduces brake maintenance, replacement parts costs and truck down time with 2000 hour oil changes planned in line with normal service intervals.

Oil-immersed brakes are recommended to be used in the following applications:

• Use in wet and dusty/dirty environments, including handling of aggressive substances.
• Areas that are heavily soiled or contaminated with debris, such as paper and wood industries, foundry and fabrication, skin and hide industries.
• Intensive short shuttle work, especially multi shift operations.
