When building trailer bodies, especially in Nigeria, there are three types of Axle suspension we usually go for, depending on so many factors 1) Double Axle suspensions 2) Bogie Axle ( It is still a double axle too) 3) Tri axle suspension (The local name is called Langa-Langa or Kape-Kape This is an example of what a Bogie axle looks like...I'm sure we have seen them many times 1 Like

Personally for me, I like Bogies because they don't have much wahala. In a country filled with bad roads everywhere, I think I'll settle for the Bogie axle. Although, depending on the load the truck is going to be carrying, one would have to settle for the Tri axle And ohh, I forgot, another name for Bogie is called Tunnel or Tunnel Axle. 1 Like

Okay, one more thing I'll like to let us know how to know the TONNAGE of a Bogie Axle The tonnage of a Bogie axle is dependent on the tonnage of its both (single) axles Okay, that may be hard to understand Think of it this way..... A Bogie Axle has Two Legs So, the Ton of a Bogie Axle is determined by the summing up the ton of the two legs. Now, Axles have different rated ton capacity. But the common ones we know are 1) 12 Ton axle ( The common name is Super 25 axle 2) 14 Ton axle ( The common name is Super 30 axle 3) 16 Ton axle ( The common name is Super 35 axle Now, remember we know that a Bogie Axle has two legs. So for a Bogie with (two) Super 25 legs, it would be a 24 Ton Bogie Axle (12 + 12) A Bogie with (two) Super 30 legs would be a 28 Ton Bogie Axle (14+14) A Bogie with (two) Super 35 legs would be a 32 Ton Bogie Axle (16+16) 1 Like |
