With Dexter’s TORFLEX^® rubber torsion suspension axles, you’ll have no concerns of damage to precious cargo due to road shock. TORFLEX unique independent axle suspension means a smoother ride for your trailer and a greater peace of mind for you.

Dexter’s TORFLEX is a torsion arm suspension that is completely self-contained within the axle tube. It attaches directly to the trailer frame using brackets which are an integral part of the axle assembly. The TORFLEX axle provides improved suspension characteristics relative to leaf spring axles through the unique arrangement of a steel torsion bar surrounded by four rubber cords encased in the main structural member of the axle beam.

Except for periodic inspection of the fasteners used to attach the TORFLEX axle to the vehicle frame, no other suspension maintenance is required on TORFLEX axles. TORFLEX axles are subject to the maintenance and inspection procedures regarding brakes, hubs, bearings, seals, wheels, and tires as outlined in Dexter’s current Operation Maintenance Service Manual.

TORFLEX FEATURES

• Independent suspension and self-damping
• Rubber cushioning eliminates metal-to-metal contact
• Less transfer of road shock for better cargo protection
• Heat-treated solid steel inner bar with forged torsion arm provides maximum strength
• Precision machined steel spindle and integral cast iron hub-drums
• Axle can be used as a load carrying cross member
• Easy installation with less overall maintenance
• CSA certification on many brake models
• Ten-year limited warranty
• ISO 9001 Certified Production Environment

The Eliminator^™ Torsion Axle is an Industry first with its removable spindle. Gone are the days of sitting by the side of the road when the spindle/axle is damaged due to extreme bearing failure or due to an accident.

Four rubber cords inside the steel tube housing handle suspension travel and shock absorption. This makes for a smoother ride over all types of road conditions. The axle bolts to the trailer frame, which acts as an additional cross member that stiffens the frame, reducing flex. The rubber torsion cord provides progressive rate shock absorption. Small bumps require less torsion resistance as compared to larger bumps, which require a stiffer rate of shock absorption.  Torsion axles allow independent movement of each wheel, reducing shock transfer and dangerous trailer sway.
