JCB axles

On and off road heavy-duty axles, for all your loading needs.

With a wide range of steer and rigid JCB axles up to 12000kg (26,500 lbs) dynamic load capacity available from JCB, there is plenty of option when it comes to your axle needs.Within the range of heavy duty 4x4 axles, we have steer and rigid truck drive axles which offer high performance in the worst operating conditions. These are powered by twin reduction with a planetary hub, ideal for a wide variety of on/off highway vehicles. We also offer heavy-duty-off-road axle equivalents with our non-drive, dead steer axle models, which benefit from the same rugged design.

All our axle ranges are available in both pad and centre pin oscillating mount with a modular construction, so they can provide high flexibility in a variety of application configurations. Plus, they boast various axle ratios and differentials, self-adjusting oil immersed service brakes and proven reliability from both the test bed and in the field.
