Sampa’s suspension and axle range
Sampa UK & Ireland has outlined some of the features and advantages of its axle, suspension and steering components portfolio.
“When a deep pothole sends a jolt through your trailer, Sampa’s UK & Ireland axle, steering and suspension solutions take the hit by smoothing out impacts, increasing braking reserves and banishing wind-up so your drivers keep rolling, your cargo stays secure, and unplanned stops vanish,” said the company.
Highlighted features include a rugged trailing arm and solid axle connection, providing a “no-wiggle link” from chassis to road; large-diameter shocks and premium seals, to soak up impact and keep out grit; bonded bushes and ABS-monitored assembly to help minimise wear and maximise safety; and thicker double-stud top plates, providing extra metal on the air-spring connection.
“Every product in the Sampa axle and suspension range is precision-engineered to exceed OE specs, robot-welded for pinpoint consistency and tested in our CAMP R&D centre against standards twice as tough as normal OEM. The result? A chassis protector that stops wind-up, water ingress and bushing fatigue.
“Thanks to optimised spring rates, high-capacity air springs at low operating pressures and exacting rubber-to-metal injection points for perfect heat distribution, Sampa says its parts deliver long-distance motorway-cruising comfort.
“And with direct-from-factory pricing plus proven total-cost-of-ownership savings, you’ll swap frequent stop-offs for maximum uptime. That means fewer bills in the workshop docket.”
The company also emphasises its nationwide coverage.
“With a 215,000 m² integrated 17-factory campus, and many internationally accredited quality systems (including Ford Q1) and distribution across the entire UK and Ireland, Sampa’s got the parts you need in stock and field engineers primed for rapid-fit replacements. All our axle and suspension solutions carry UK/EU ISO certification and bolt straight on to any HGV trailer make or model.”
