Forklift Steer Axle

Forklift Steer Axle - Axles are defined by a central shaft which revolves a gear or a wheel. The axle on wheeled vehicles may be attached to the wheels and turned together with them. In this particular case, bushings or bearings are provided at the mounting points where the axle is supported. Conversely, the axle could be connected to its surroundings and the wheels may in turn revolve around the axle. In this particular case, a bearing or bushing is placed within the hole within the wheel to be able to allow the gear or wheel to rotate all-around the axle.

Whenever referring to cars and trucks, some references to the word axle co-occur in casual usage. Generally, the word means the shaft itself, a transverse pair of wheels or its housing. The shaft itself turns together with the wheel. It is normally bolted in fixed relation to it and known as an 'axle shaft' or an 'axle.' It is equally true that the housing around it which is generally known as a casting is otherwise known as an 'axle' or sometimes an 'axle housing.' An even broader definition of the word means every transverse pair of wheels, whether they are connected to one another or they are not. Hence, even transverse pairs of wheels in an independent suspension are often referred to as 'an axle.'

In a wheeled vehicle, axles are an essential component. With a live-axle suspension system, the axles serve in order to transmit driving torque to the wheel. The axles also maintain the position of the wheels relative to one another and to the motor vehicle body. In this particular system the axles should also be able to support the weight of the vehicle together with whichever cargo. In a non-driving axle, like for example the front beam axle in several two-wheel drive light vans and trucks and in heavy-duty trucks, there would be no shaft. The axle in this condition serves only as a steering part and as suspension. Lots of front wheel drive cars consist of a solid rear beam axle.

There are various types of suspension systems where the axles work only to transmit driving torque to the wheels. The position and angle of the wheel hubs is a function of the suspension system. This is usually seen in the independent suspension seen in the majority of brand new sports utility vehicles, on the front of several light trucks and on nearly all brand new cars. These systems still consist of a differential but it does not have fixed axle housing tubes. It can be fixed to the motor vehicle frame or body or even could be integral in a transaxle. The axle shafts then transmit driving torque to the wheels. The shafts in an independent suspension system are like a full floating axle system as in they do not support the vehicle weight.

The motor vehicle axle has a more ambiguous classification, meaning that the parallel wheels on opposing sides of the motor vehicle, regardless of their kind of mechanical connection to one another.
