Steering axle, steering stabiliser 2

General

The ef ect of the steering axle is that the suspension unit
steers into a curve better and almost precisely follows the
circular path of the tractor unit.
The lateral forces on the tyres are optimally distributed among
all the axles, for example in the case of a three-axle trailer.
Because each axle experiences considerably lower lateral
forces, the performance of the tyres is demonstrably incre-
ased by up to 50 % on the front axle – and up to 70 % on
the rear axle.
The use of the BPW steering axle produces absolutely even
wear.
