TRAILER axle specialist BPW is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its patented ECO hub system which arguably set new benchmarks within the transport industry.
Over the years BPW has introduced innovations to each generation of the ECO hub, including requirements for safety regulations and sustainability allied to low-maintenance features.
The BPW hub system uses a unique spindle nut that automatically compensates for any wear in the bearings. This gives an advantage over a compact or cartridge bearing.
When the bearings need to be replaced, this can be achieved without having to separate the hub from the road wheel, brake drum, or disc.
