Hendrickson has unveiled the tapered-beam Intraax AANT 23K primary air-ride trailer suspension system. Tapered-beam technology allows Hendrickson to trim more than 35 pounds from the system. A narrower hanger design allows installation directly to trailer frames with flanges as narrow as 4" wide offering even greater weight savings.

The Intraax AANT has a capacity of 23,000 pounds in ride heights from 13.5" to 17". In addition, Hendrickson offers the AANT with the X3 Tri-Base, a modular mounting subframe designed mainly for steel platform trailers. The X3 Tri-Base design increases lateral, torsional, and longitudinal stiffness to prevent trailer frame parallelogram deflections.

Options include long-life wheel ends including the HUS unitized hub system and HXS (Hendrickson Extended Service) brakes. For additional information, contact Hendrickson, 2070 Industrial Place SE, Canton OH 44707-2641.
