6000 Series Rigid Tandem

AxleTech’s new 6000 Series planetary reduction rear drive axles are designed for a wide range of off-highway, light to heavy-haul specialty trucks. Our 6000 Series planetary reduction drive axles are available in single and tandem configurations with axle weight ratings up to 30,000 lb (13.6 T) and 72,000 lb (32.6 T) respectively. Axles are available with drum or disc brake options, an overall axle ratio range of 3.30 to 7.38, and multiple track widths to meet vehicle specifications. These axles feature hypoid gears which are designed with a larger diameter and face width than standard gear designs for extra strength. Optional ground gears are also available for lower noise levels. This modular design includes a range of different brake options, ratios, and track widths.
