CANTON, OH — Hendrickson unveils on the aftermarket its universal HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE (HCV) for truck, tractor and trailer air-ride suspensions.
"You'll be able to visually see and feel the difference in your vehicle's performance with our valve," reports Gary Ciapetta, marketing manager, Hendrickson International, Trailer Suspension Systems.
The Hendrickson HCV provides twice the airflow of comparable sized valves for quicker air up, improved response and faster exhaust. That delivers greater suspension, trailer and cargo protection during normal operation, while improving stability during loading and unloading.
Fewer moving parts, large bearing surface areas and multiple seals make the Hendrickson valve more resistant to side loading and misalignment issues often experienced in the field. The tuned dead band and porting minimizes air consumption while improving the overall suspension system response.
Standard original equipment on all Hendrickson truck, tractor and trailer air suspension systems, this valve has a proven record of reliability over the road and off the road.
Hendrickson's HCV Aftermarket Kit VS-227 includes hardware for installation on virtually all truck, tractor and trailer air-ride suspensions regardless of manufacturer, model or year and is available from OEMs or from heavy-duty parts distributors and service dealers.
With the Hendrickson aftermarket kit, fleets and shops only need to order and stock one part number to meet all truck, tractor and trailer air-suspension HCV needs.
"Today's operators look for low-maintenance and long-life components to keep their equipment on the road and out of the shop," Ciapetta adds. "The Hendrickson HCV provides just what the operator is looking for great performance at a reasonable price."
Hendrickson, with 24 facilities worldwide, is one of the largest international suppliers of truck, tractor and trailer suspensions, lift axles, springs, bumpers and stamped components to the commercial transportation industry. Hendrickson has been meeting the needs of the transportation industry for more than 70 years. Hendrickson is headquartered at 800 South Frontage Road, Woodridge, IL 60517-4904.
