Self Adjusting Brake Adjusters (S-ABA)
Published On: 14th April, 2018
The Haldex S-ABA automatic brake adjuster leverages innovative self-setting flexible design to offer two benefits that have revolutionised brake adjuster fitting: a free selection of the control arm position and error-free installation.
The Haldex S-ABA functions irrespective of the position of the control arm. Previously a brake adjuster could function with the control arm in one pre-designated position. However, self-setting means no time-consuming adjustments during installation, helping fix the control arm and achieve the correct pre-determined running clearance.
Key benefits:
- Quick and easy installation.
- Establishes its own reference point; no need to pre-set the control arm.
- Durable and predictable performance.
- Robust design applicable for all drum-brake installations.
Differentiators
- Global leader, having sold more than 75 million brake adjusters since its introduction in the late 1960s.
- Broad product range covering all vehicle applications.
- Reliable ring seal prevents contamination from moisture, dirt and road salt.
- Built-in visual indicator verifies proper installation at a glance, eliminating templates needed to check other ABA installations.
- Reduces maintenance costs and extends service intervals.
- Unique, fully-sealed control arm eliminates the exposed linkage and rubber boots of linkage style adjusters, improving durability and reliability.
- Simplifies adjustment during installation and brake lining replacement with an easily accessible adjustment hex (requiring no locking pawls to remove or disengage).
