AL-KO Rocker Roller Springs are similar to the “traditional” automotive leaf spring.
Both ends of the spring are coiled into an eye into which a bush is placed. The front of the spring is captive in a spring “hanger” and the rear, an elongated eye of the spring is allowed to move back and forth over a solid bush.
This spring system gives quick operation for small road faults like shallow pot holes, with the parts which naturally wear over time, being able to be replaced.
Rocker Roller springs are used in a multi axle configuration. Linking the springs through a “rocker” assembly, a transfer of load is achieved when one axle is carrying a large percentage of the weight (crossing kerbs etc.) so that the loads are more evenly spread throughout the system.
