“Since the introduction of the T900 driveline system it has continued to gain a strong position in the marketplace for its reliability and robustness with customers from US, Singapore, Australia, Emirates, Serbia, Russia, Poland, and South Africa selecting the system for their vehicles,” said Jean Vandel, Business Development Director at Texelis.  He added “I am proud of our workforce who have worked hard to ensure that we produce these axles to the very highest quality levels required by our customers.”

The T900 is a modular design which can be adjusted to suit individual vehicle needs.  The system includes independent suspension, wheel ends, differentials, and transfer cases and can be part of a complete under the hull mobility solution.

The system can be used on 4x4s, 6x6s, or 8x8s requiring a 9000kg weight bearing axle.  The associated suspension system is a double wishbone design and can use either coil spring or damper hydro pneumatics.

Texelis manufactures the T900 under licence from Timoney of Ireland, the designers of the system.
