WOODRIDGE, Ill. — Hendrickson officials announced that Hino selected COMFORT
AIR® rear air-ride suspension on its new conventional medium-duty truck.
COMFORT AIR, single-axle suspension system, delivers outstanding cargo
protection, driver and rider comfort and enhanced handling while reducing body
vibration and stress.
Tailored specifically to the Hino vehicle, this suspension is ideal for straight
truck applications such as: beverage, furniture, rental, tanker, emergency,
recycling and sweepers.
COMFORT AIR mounting brackets for Hino match common frame hole locations with
their mechanical suspension allowing relatively easy conversion to air ride.
Using advanced spring technology, COMFORT AIR’s main support member employs an
elongated design for optimized roll stiffness and to shift more of the vertical
load to the air springs for a softer ride.
Based on Hendrickson’s proven heavy-duty HAS™ suspension and axle connection
technology, COMFORT AIR features QUIK-ALIGN® for easy, quick realignment and a
rugged pivot bushing connection for maximum durability and quiet operation.
A stamped steel cross channel enhances lateral support in the suspension system
while outboard mounted shock absorbers maximize stability.
Hendrickson’s technology, resulting from more than two million suspensions,
provides superior cargo protection, reduces stress and vibration to the vehicle
and enhances driver comfort.
