KNOTT VR7 unbraked rigid axle with spring for trailer 750kg 1480mm 1820mm 4x100
The KNOTT P11041.011 unbraked rigid axle is designed for lightweight trailers with a maximum load capacity of 750 kg. The mounting hole spacing is 1480 mm and the hub spacing is 1820 mm , allowing for easy installation on a wide range of vehicles. The standard 4x100 bolt pattern ensures compatibility with most wheels available on the market.
A rigid axle is a classic design solution in which the axle itself has no built-in shock absorption – vibration damping is achieved using suspension components such as leaf springs or air springs . The axle is designed to work with leaf spring suspension and is compatible with the most popular springs available on the market. It is attached to the springs using stirrups , and its position relative to the trailer frame is established via a centering hole , ensuring stability, proper vehicle handling, and even load distribution.
Axles constitute the structural foundation of every trailer, ensuring its stability, durability, and adequate shock absorption during transport. They are a key element that allows for the safe transport of various loads. Choosing the right axles is crucial, as it influences the safety, driving comfort, and durability of the entire transport system. Proper shock absorption helps protect transported goods from damage , while the appropriate load capacity ensures stability during driving, especially in difficult conditions.
Trailer axles – versatility of applications
Trailer axles are distinguished by their versatility, making them suitable for various types of vehicles, such as cargo trailers, caravans, flatbed trailers, and livestock and equipment trailers . Their universal design allows for adaptation to a variety of transport conditions, regardless of the type of load being carried. These axles provide stability, safety, and ride comfort , making them a reliable solution for both everyday use and more specialized tasks. The ability to install additional components, such as shock absorbers, allows for further optimization of their performance, tailoring the trailer to individual needs.
Optimal protection against corrosion
Advanced anti-corrosion protection guarantees long-lasting durability and aesthetic appeal. The axle profile is hot-dip galvanized, providing comprehensive protection against rust and weathering, even in the most demanding conditions. At the same time, the hub is protected with a high-quality cataphoresis coating, known for its excellent adhesion and resistance to mechanical damage. This two-stage surface protection method not only significantly extends the axle's lifespan but also minimizes maintenance requirements, translating into lower operating costs and years of reliability.
Maintenance-free bearings and easy assembly
The axles feature advanced compact bearings , an integral part of their reliable system. These precision-engineered components combine high durability with ease of maintenance, offering optimal performance in a wide range of operating conditions. These bearings are factory-lubricated and sealed , eliminating the need for regular maintenance and adjustments. Combining durability, maintenance-free operation, and reliability, compact bearings significantly contribute to the overall safety and reliability of the axle.
