ABT BrakeSAFE Wheel End Brakes offer a fail-safe solution for vehicle control and safety. With a Spring Applied Hydraulic Release (SAHR) mechanism and optional interlocks, the integrated Park and Service Brake system is triggered immediately by pressing the E-Stop button, turning off the engine key, or opening a vehicle door. This innovative technology not only eliminates the risk of unintended vehicle movement but also ensures unparalleled safety for operators and site personnel.
HOW IT WORKS
The BrakeSAFE System works by extending the brake caliper to enclose the disc, forming a split housing. The inner housing is mounted to the axle end, and after installing the pads, disc, and hub, the outer housing completes the assembly.
