Hendrickson has come out with the Ultra Rod Plus torque rod replacement option for heavy-duty trucks and tractors.
The “plus” in Ultra Rod Plus represents added versatility. Empty end hubs allow the use of any cartridge configuration from existing Hendrickson torque rod cartridge inventory.
The Ultra Rod Plus 30" spacer end provides the capability to trim the torque rod length — just measure, cut, and weld. One-piece forging of both tube and spacer ends eliminates the standard end-hub assembly weld and provides greater structural integrity.
The addition of Ultra Rod Plus to Hendrickson's aftermarket line provides end users a choice between the original Hendrickson two-piece Ultra Rod assembly, which eliminates the bushing step, or the added versatility of Ultra Rod Plus.
In the stockroom. the two-piece Ultra Rod Plus requires only two part numbers eliminating multiple torque rod inventory and part numbers. Contact Hendrickson, 800 S Frontage Rd, Woodridge IL 60517-4904 for further information.
