H-CP™, a revolutionary, non-torque-reactive, lightweight drive axle suspension system, combines superior ride and improved stability with reduced weight and superior chassis packaging.
With it’s unique patented design, H-CP helps deliver quiet, smooth operation even with today’s most powerful engines. H-CP proves ideal for weight sensitive applications with the additional benefits of outstanding durability and reduced lifecycle costs.
Driveline angles are maintained throughout axle travel, thereby reducing suspension-induced driveline vibration. H-CP’s parallelogram geometry eliminates the frame rise that is characteristic on trailing arm suspensions, minimising wear and tear on driveline components.
Unlike other air suspensions that carry the vertical load on a combination of steel springs and air spring, H-CP rides on a full cushion of air. By carrying 100 percent of the vertical load on specially designed air springs, H-CP delivers up to a 34-percent ride improvement.
Elimination of the anti-roll bar increases packaging space, while the multifunctional front hanger increases forward packaging by 150 mm.
Reduces weight
H-CP replaces the traditional anti-roll bar and “A-frame”, reducing the component count by up to 60 percent — slashing weight and improving assembly time
Outstanding ride
Large volume, direct-acting air springs support the entire load while providing improved ride and comfort
Simple design reacts to multi-axial loading, improving stability and control
Torque box can be tuned to suit individual customer ride and handling requirements
More road time
Maintenance-free bushings and a simplified design minimises vehicle down time, improves productivity and reduces costs
Flexibility
Optimised packaging for all axle configurations
Axle can be run in leading or trailing configurations
Tag available in single or twin, fixed-wheel and steering configurations
Unique design allows easy addition of lifting systems
Elimination of anti-roll bar increases rear packaging space for fitment of ancilliary equipment and additional tanks
Multi-functional front hanger combines torque rod, air spring and upper damper mounting to increase forward packaging space by 150mm
