General

Determining replacement axle beams
The BPW axle code number is shown on the type plate.
If this is missing or no longer legible, the BPW axle

number can be read off the front end of the axle stub in
most cases.
When ordering the axle beam, quote this BPW axle
number with the reference to a replacement axle beam.

In steering axles and ECO Plus 2 bearings, there is no
code number embossed on the front end of the stub.

From June 2012, the axle beam welding number will now
be stamped onto the axle stub on the front.

If there is no BPW axle number or none is known, BPW
can identify the axle on the basis of the axle beam welding
number (see also BPW Internet application for spare part
lists for commercial vehicles) or the dimensions.
