SPRC1735

AxleTech Planetary Rigid Tandem Axles SPRC1735

When you couple rough terrain with heavy loads and adverse weather conditions, you need the strength and support of AxleTech International’s planetary tandem axles. The AxleTech International* SPRC1735 has the capability to meet the most severe vocational duty cycles and provide productivity uptime that converts directly to end-user productivity.

Log haulers, truck cranes, heavy equipment transporters, and special purpose vehicles work in some of the most grueling environments in the world. AxleTech tandem planetary axles are designed with these conditions in mind. 

  • Weight capacity of up to 500,000 lbs (226,800 kg) in gross combination weights (GCW) dependent upon specific vocational duty cycle requirements. 
  • A balanced gearing design puts more power at the wheel ends. This reduces torque and stress on axle shafts and carrier/differential gearing, directly contributing to longer component life and reduced maintenance costs.
  • Standard high-capacity hypoid gearing, crowned planet gears, and rugged high-strength steel axle housings.
  • Optional features include high-capacity cam brakes, carrier differential options, inter-axle differential with a pressurized oil lubrication system, oil filter mounted on carrier housing, single or dual-style wheel hub mountings. 
  • A wide range of overall axle ratios are available.
  • Extra axle housing magnets reduce metallic contamination between oil lubrication intervals.

Axletech’s special axle shaft manufacturing process produces high-strength and shock-resistant axle shafts to withstand the torsional stress requirements of large engines and transmission low gear operations.

SPRC1927

SPRC1927

The SPRC1927 has the capacity of up to 600,000 lbs (272,000 kg) in gross combination weights (GCW) dependent upon specific vocational duty cycle requirements. A balanced gearing design puts more power at the wheel ends, which reduces torque and stress on axle shafts and carrier/differential gearing. As a result, you’ll enjoy longer component life and reduced maintenance costs.

  • High-capacity hypoid gearing, crowned planet gears, and rugged high-strength steel axle housings. 
  • Optional inter-axle differential with a pressurized oil lubrication system. 
  • Optional single or dual-style wheel hub mountings. 
  • A range of overall axle ratios are available.
  • Extra axle housing magnets reduce metallic contamination between oil lubrication intervals.

SPRC1937

The AxleTech SPRC1937 tandem set features heavy-duty cast steel housings along with heavy-duty four-pinion planetary wheel ends for log haulers, truck cranes, dump trucks, heavy equipment transporters, and special purpose vehicles. The SPRC1937 has a capacity of up to 600,000 lbs (272,000 kg) in gross combination weights (GCW) dependent upon specific vocational duty cycle requirements. 

  • High capacity hypoid gearing, crowned planet gears, and rugged high-strength steel axle housings. 
  • Optional inter-axle differential with a pressurized oil lubrication system.
  • Single or dual-style wheel hub mountings.
  • Range of overall axle ratios. 
  • Extra axle housing magnets for reduced metallic contamination between oil lubrications.

SPRC2197

The AxleTech SPRC2197 has capacity of up to 760,000 lbs (344,750 kg) in gross combination weights (GCW) dependent upon specific vocational duty cycle requirements. 

  • High capacity hypoid gearing, crowned planet gears, and rugged high-strength steel axle housings. 
  • Optional inter-axle differential with a pressurized oil lubrication system.
  • Single or dual-style wheel hub mountings.
  • Range of overall axle ratios. 
  • Extra axle housing magnets for reduced metallic contamination between oil lubrication.

SPRC4806

SPRC4806

The AxleTech SPRC4806 tandem planetary rigid axles have a capacity of up to 1,000,000 lbs (453,600 kg) in gross combination weights (GCW) depending upon specific vocational duty cycle requirements. 

  • High capacity hypoid gearing, crowned planet gears, wheel end planet gears mounted on tapered bearings and rugged, high-strength steel axle housings. 
  • Optional high-capacity cam brakes, carrier differential options, and inter-axle differential with a pressurized oil lubrication system. 
  • Single or dual-style wheel hub mountings. 
  • Wide range of overall axle ratios.
  • Extra axle housing magnets for reduced metallic contamination between oil lubrication. 
  • An upgraded spindle nut retention mechanism for rugged operations.
