Slack Adjusters: Features & Benefits
Rugged, durable construction
Wear-resistant wipers between sliding elements that prevent dirt and moisture from entering the unit as well as corrosion protection on all parts help ensure reliable operation in service over the long haul.
Minimal maintenance
NYAB slack adjusters automatically adapt to brake shoe and wheel wear with each brake application, and need only two brake applications to conform to correct clearance after brake shoe replacement.
Control link and actuating lever hole clearance allows for 6° of axial alignment in all directions between the slack adjuster and the control rod / actuating link, minimizing the effort required for installation.
Installation options
KRD-482-E for body mounted brake applications features a take-up capacity of 19 inches (482 mm).
- Shipped at 83” overall length for ease of installation
- KRD-133-L for truck mounted brake applications features a take-up capacity of 5-1/4 inches (133 mm).
