DF302S | Bus steering axle
The Dongfeng DANA Coach Axle DF302S is a high-performance I-beam steering axle in the F3.0 series with a rated load of 3000kg. It is exclusively equipped with a dual-specification air brake system (φ310×120 and φ310×130 brake drums, suitable for 17.5″ wheel rims).
Core parameters are precisely optimized: wheelbase supports precise tolerance adjustment from 2053.5 to 2209 mm, with flexible layout for rim mounting distances from 1742 to 1904 mm; kingpin center distance ranges from 1444.6 to 1638 mm to enhance steering stiffness, while the 70+35 mm composite front axle drop significantly improves maneuverability on complex terrain.
Compatible with 215/75R17.5 wide-base tires and 6.00×17.5 rims, with an outer wheel steering angle of 41° (the best in the industry), and air chamber interfaces compatible with industry-standard specifications.
We provide full life cycle services for all customers, from design to power system supply, from installation to commissioning, from after-sales service training to spare parts supply, from trouble shooting to overhaul technical support.
DF302S Product Features
Superior load capacity: covering 2.7 to 4.2 tons, the bridge body is precision cast from high-strength steel, with 25% improved torsional resistance, suitable for long-distance/public transportation heavy-duty requirements.
Ultra-Quiet and Smooth: Features ground spiral bevel gears and adaptive noise-reduction design, with NVH performance optimized by 40%, and driving noise ≤65dB.
Intelligent Braking Safety: Standard across the range with disc brakes + EBS electronic braking + ABS (F4.2 supports dual-circuit air brakes), response time ≤0.2 seconds, braking distance reduced by 15%.
Extended Maintenance Intervals: IP6K9K-rated sealing + centralized lubrication system, key components designed for maintenance-free operation, maintenance intervals up to 8,000 km, reducing operational costs by 30%.
