ContiTech Air Spring Systems has brought two new types of air spring onto the market for its customers in commercial vehicle original equipment: air springs from the Arktis series for use in especially cold areas and high-temperature air springs for use in high temperatures above zero.
Targeting the growing transport volume in especially cold regions, ContiTech has developed a cold-resistant air spring for semi-trucks. The key basis for the cold-resistant air springs is the special rubber compound used.
To slow down the process and guarantee a long service life even in high temperatures, ContiTech has developed an air spring for high-temperature applications – the high-temperature air spring. It is based on a compound comprising chloroprene rubber (CR) as the main component.
