Dana to debut new axles

Jun 13, 2003 12:00 PM


Dana Corp.'s Commercial Vehicle Systems Division has introduced a new family of single-speed, single-drive axles that feature increased approval ratings for high horsepower engines, lighter weight, broader ratio and application coverage, and advanced gear technology.

The Dana Spicer S190 Series axles begin production in November and will be available for linehaul, city delivery, LTL, refuse, fire/rescue and dump, mixer and other vocational/construction applications in either a straight truck or tractor-trailer configurations.

Looking to meet current as well as future customer demands, Dana said it has designed the axles to perform well with vehicles outfitted with future drivetrain ratings of up to 2,450 lb.-ft. of torque and up to 700 hp.

The S190 Series has an extra wide face width with 470-mm primary hypoid gearing for quieter operation, greater strength, and increased durability. A broad range of ratios - 2.69 to 7.83 - is available with the S23-190 model to allow for maximum flexibility in spec'ing options. The S26-190 and S30-190 models offer a ratio range of 3.42 to 7.83.

All S190 Series axles qualify for a 250,000-mile initial lube drain interval when used in linehaul service and specified with a Dana approved factory-filled extended life lubricant, Dana's U-Tube axle breather, as well as LMS hubs, UHS hubs, or Outrunner wheel seals.

The axles have a gross combination weight rating of up to 125,000 lbs. The S23-190 has a gross axle weight (GAW) rating of 23,000 lbs.; the S26-190 of 26,000 lbs.; and the S30-190 is rated at 30,000 lbs.

The standard warranty for the S190 Series is up to five years/750,000 miles for approved linehaul applications and with Dana approved factory-filled, synthetic lube.
