Description

Overview

The camshaft bush washer circlip kit Fruehauf axle fitment services one trailer axle that uses S cam drum brakes. It renews camshaft support so the brake shoes track squarely in the drum. This helps the trailer brake consistently under load. Fleets can use this kit to reduce uneven wear and vibration while keeping brake maintenance straightforward.

Features

This camshaft bush washer circlip kit Fruehauf fitment arrives as a matched set for one axle, so each component works correctly with the rest. The kit includes camshaft bushes, thrust washers and circlips to locate and retain the S camshaft in the brake spider. Additionally, it suits workshop and fleet environments where reliable, repeatable brake overhauls matter. In many cases, technicians will fit this kit whenever they reline the brakes on a Fruehauf axle.

Compliance and Safety

Correct camshaft support plays a critical role in brake performance, because excessive play can cause brake grab, noise and uneven lining wear. During installation, technicians should inspect the S camshaft journals, spiders and brake shoes, then replace any badly worn components to maintain heavy vehicle brake compliance. In addition, follow the trailer or axle manufacturer service instructions, support the vehicle securely and chock wheels before working on the brake system. After fitting this camshaft bush washer circlip kit Fruehauf fitment, always adjust slack adjusters correctly and confirm free rotation and full brake application before returning the trailer to service.
