Slipper end springs are a form of leaf spring in which one end is fixed and the other slides through an open bracket as the spring flexes under load. They have similar advantages to double eye springs and are available with a range of capacities for single and twin axle use.
They are all 2 inches wide and are fitted with a metalastic type bush at the eye end. Each set of springs are supplied with a kit of shackle equipment to fix the spring to the chassis and axle. The brackets which fit to the chassis can be high or low mount depending on the height of the trailer bed required. Please specify when ordering.
As with double eye springs, where a twin axle application is used, they can either be fitted in single sets (tandem) or linked (close coupled) The technical data sheet shows how close coupled springs are linked through a centre balance beam at the slipper end.
If ordering spring assemblies without axles, can you please specify the axle beam cross-section to ensure the correct U-bolt size is supplied.
