Haldex now is offering Gold Seal and Life Seal spring brakes with the OEM specified welded clevis pushrod assembly. These new models come with the clevis welded to the pushrod and in the exact pre-set position used in new vehicle production, the company says. This OEM grade replacement comes in both standard stroke and long stroke.
According to Haldex, benefits of the welded clevis include:
- Saves time and money during installation by eliminating measuring and cutting of the pushrod, threading of clevis and setting
- Reduces scrap costs associated with pushrod cutting errors
- Uses exact pre-set OEM specs, reduces opportunity for application errors and risk of DOT fines
- Cut-to-length push rod eliminates need for jam nut, improving push rod to clevis clearance and increases vehicle safety
- Makes spring brake and automatic brake adjuster installation faster
