Meritor builds its new P600 Series Tridem Heavy-Haul Planetary Axle to operate in extreme conditions for heavy-duty, long-haul, oil field, mining and logging applications. Full production begins in June.
The P600 Tridem is compatible with industry-leading suspension options and offers a best-in-class gross axle weight rating (GAWR) of 126,000 lbs. and gross combination weight of 560,000 lbs. Meritor's new proportioning inter-axle differential delivers even torque split between the three axles for improved traction, maximum load capacity and increased longevity of the drivetrain.
The P600 Tridem's wide ratio coverage and standard anti-lock brakes deliver optimum safety and performance in the most extreme conditions. When equipped with the optional driver-controlled differential lock and hardware for central tire inflation systems (CTIS), the P600 has the premium features required for the most demanding applications.
