Description

Overview

The Meritor camshaft bracket 65mm bush assembly is a general purpose hanger that supports the brake camshaft bush on heavy trailer axles. It locates the shaft around its 65mm inner diameter, so the foundation brake hardware stays running true under load. It also helps transfer braking forces into the hanger and chassis bracket, which helps the S-cam rotate smoothly over time.

Features

This Meritor camshaft bracket 65mm bush assembly uses a three-hole mounting pattern, so workshops can line it up quickly on matching hangers. The 17mm hole diameter suits common heavy trailer fasteners and typical torque settings. The bracket profile also allows easier spanner access around bolt heads and nuts, which can speed up replacements in the workshop. It suits a wide mix of camshaft and hanger layouts where a 65mm bush is specified.

Compliance and Safety

Correctly supporting the brake camshaft is critical for safe heavy vehicle braking performance, so technicians should follow Meritor and axle maker instructions when installing the Meritor camshaft bracket 65mm bush assembly. When replacing the bracket, check the bush, camshaft, seals and hardware for wear. Always chock wheels, support the trailer on rated stands, and isolate air supplies before working on any foundation brake components.

Trailer Applications

Workshops typically use the Meritor camshaft bracket 65mm bush assembly on semi-trailers and other heavy trailers fitted with compatible drum brake systems. It suits general freight, tanker, bulk and curtain-sider fleets where S-cam brakes rely on a hanger-mounted bracket and bush to carry the camshaft. If you are standardising parts across multiple trailer models, this general purpose layout can help where the hanger pattern and 65mm bush match.
