Designed & Built For Africa
With over 30 years of mechanical engineering experience, Britcom International is regarded as one of the UK’s leading chassis converters.
Recently accredited as an approved MAN Chassis Converter, and working in conjunction with other major truck manufacturers, in association with an internationally renowned axle manufacturer we can offer an axle specification that will satisfy the needs of most transport operators.
Due to ongoing road improvements, the strict implementation of weigh bridges and the ever increasing cost of fuel, at Britcom we believe that for most applications the best axle configuration for the developing world is a 6×2 with Steel Suspension and air operated lifting rear axle on twin wheels.
The process involves the complete removal of the original air suspension system and the reinforcing of the chassis assembly.
A complete new four (4) spring steel suspension system with the added advantage of a new air operated lifting rear axle with twin wheels is then fitted.
MAJOR BENEFITS COMPARED TO A STANDARD AXLE CONFIGURATION: – Increased Payload – Increased Traction Due To Lifting Axle – Reduced Fuel Consumption – Reduced Tyre Wear – Simple, Basic Maintenance – Twin Wheels On The Rear Axle – Can Be Operated With Virtually Any Type Of Trailer
