Conventional Heavy Duty Suspension Leaf Springs for Semi Trailers

Publish Time: 2025-10-10     Origin: Site

Leaf springs remain the most reliable and widely used suspension components in heavy duty trucks and semi trailers. With over 20 years of engineering experience since 1999, WONDEE specializes in delivering durable, high-performance leaf springs that comply with IATF 16949-2016 and ISO 9001-2015 standards. These components enhance vehicle stability, load-bearing capacity, and long-term operational reliability for various industrial transportation applications.

Understanding Leaf Springs and Their Applications

A leaf spring consists of multiple alloy steel plates arranged in decreasing lengths, forming a flexible beam capable of absorbing shocks and transmitting forces between wheels and chassis. This design ensures smoother rides, improves steering stability, and maintains proper axle alignment. Conventional leaf springs are ideal for heavy duty vehicles, including lowbed, flatbed, skeletal, oil tank, and van trailers.

In addition, leaf springs serve light trucks, pick-ups, buses, and agricultural vehicles. Their adaptability makes them suitable for diverse industrial transport tasks, such as bulk cargo, automotive transport, and construction material delivery. By selecting the appropriate leaf spring type, operators can achieve optimal suspension performance and increased vehicle lifespan.

Technical Advantages of WONDEE Leaf Springs

WONDEE leaf springs exceed standard industry requirements in multiple aspects. The camber tolerance is within ±6 mm, surpassing the typical ±7 mm. Fatigue life exceeds 120,000 cycles, outperforming the standard 100,000 cycles. Flat bars are sourced from China’s top three steel mills, guaranteeing consistent quality and mechanical strength. Each leaf spring undergoes precise CNC cutting, eye rolling, parabolic tapering, heat treatment, shot peening, and coating processes to ensure maximum durability.
