Lightweight brakes with heavyweight performance

The Haldex Air Disc Brake ModulT features a unique combination of low weight and high performance – and an unbeatably broad field of applications.

Weighing in at a mere 31 kg – including the brake pads – it is the lightest 22.5" trailer brake on the market. DBT22LT is just the beginning. It will soon be followed by 17.5", 19.5" and 22.5" versions for buses and trucks.

Key benefits:

• A single tappet mechanism with similar clamping force distribution to a twin tappet mechanism. The single-tappet mechanism also assures excellent pressure distribution. The result – in addition to superior braking capability – is even, perfect load distribution on the brake pads.
• Simplified maintenance = low down time; Another innovative design aspect is the boltless snap-on brake pad retainer fitment, simplifying brake pad replacement. The entire construction requires just two bolts.
• Modular; the same mechanism, sliding function design and even spare parts used on multiple brake sizes;
• Stainless sliding pins requiring no lubrication, fit and forget solution. ModulT has just two sliding pins (instead of four) and a completely closed caliper;
• Low weight with high performance and efficiency - double roller bearings for themechanism lever keep the hysteresis low.
• Long service life: stainless steel sliding pins and inverted self-protecting mechanism bellows.

What sets us apart:

• Low weight; the lightest air disc brake available
• Cost efficient; design solutions are driven by strong cost focus
• No special tools needed for pad exchange;
• Unsurpassed weight / brake torque ratio;
• The mechanism bellow is folded inwards and thus better protected from external affection (stones/blister etc);
