PRODUCT IN FOCUSMERITOR GLADHANDS

DID YOU KNOW?

Gladhands are coupling devices used to connect the service and emergency air lines from the truck or tractor to the trailer.

The couplers have a rubber seal which prevents air from escaping. To connect the gladhands, the driver presses the two seals together with the couplers at a 90° angle to each other.

A turn of the glad hand attached to the hose will join and lock the couplers.

Ordered in convenient and sturdy Meritor display buckets - when sold as 75 pieces.

TECH TIPSMERITOR® DRIVER-CONTROLLED DIFFERENTIAL LOCK (DCDL)INTER-AXLE DIFFERENTIAL (IAD) LOCK

Wheel Differential Function.n Allows both wheel ends of an axle to receive equal torque

from the driveline by "splitting" the torque between the two wheel ends

n Compensates for: • Speed difference between wheel ends that occurs when

the vehicle is turning and the outside wheel rotates faster than the inside wheel

• Tire mismatch • Uneven road conditions

Inter-Axle Differential Function.An inter-axle differential (IAD) works in a similar manner to the main differential except it splits the torque equally between the two axles of a tandem, rather than the two wheel ends of an axle.

n Allows for speed differences between the two axles of the tandem

DCDL IAD Lock

n Front drive steer axlen Single reduction rear axlesn Forward rear axle of a tandemn Rear rear axle of a tandemn Both axles of a tandem

n Standard on all Meritor® tandem drive axlesn Compatible with the DCDL: • Forward rear axle of the tandem • Rear rear axle of the tandem • Both axles of the tandem

Axle Configuration Availability.

IAD Lock Features and Benefits:

DRIVER-CONTROLLED DIFFERENTIAL LOCK (DCDL)INTER-AXLE DIFFERENTIAL (IAD) LOCK

DCDL Features and Benefits:

n When used properly, the DCDL protects the wheel differential components by preventing spinout damage

n The DCDL has fewer parts compared to other traction devices providing; improved serviceability, less maintenance, lower cost, and high reliability

n The DCDL does not require special lubricants or additives like some clutch pack traction devices

n The DCDL does not generate wear particles like some clutch pack and mechanical torque biasing devices

n The DCDL is driver controlled and used only when unfavorable traction conditions are encountered

n The DCDL locks the wheel differential directing all available torque to the wheel ends

n The DCDL, when unlocked, does not generate fuel consuming friction like clutch pack or mechanical torque biasing devices

n When the DCDL is not in use the differential func-tions smoothly, no stick, slip behavior or unwanted NVH like some clutch pack and mechanical torque biasing devices

n When used properly, the IAD Lock protects the power divider components by preventing spinout damage

n The IAD Lock can be used at all speeds and for longer periods depending on weather conditions, such as rain or snow

n The IAD Lock does not require special lubricants or additives and does not generate wear particles like some mechanical torque biasing interaxle differential devices

n The IAD Lock is driver controlled and used only when unfavorable traction conditions are encountered

n The IAD Lock when engaged locks the inter-axle differential directing all available torque to both axles

n The IAD Lock, when disengaged, does not generate fuel consuming friction like other mechanical torque biasing inter-axle differential devices
