Mack Trucks’ proprietary 16,000-pound front axle is now available for order on the Mack Pinnacle Axle Back and Axle Forward models.
Built to bear the heavier loads commonly found in Canada, the 16,000-pound Mack FXL front axle enables carriers to transport more cargo, improving productivity and efficiency. It is also available in the U.S.
“Our 16,000-pound front axle improves performance with the same legendary durability and reliability that Mack pioneered,” said Roy Horton, director of product strategy for Mack Trucks. “It’s designed significantly heavier so that our customers can improve their efficiency by transporting more payload at one time.”
Mack axles, engineered to work seamlessly with Mack MP engines and Mack transmissions as part of Mack’s integrated powertrain, offer superior strength and improved fuel efficiency. Developed to provide a stable and smooth ride under demanding loads, the Mack FXL axle also simplifies maintenance, improving uptime for customers.
All Mack Pinnacle models equipped with Mack MP engines come standard with Mack GuardDog Connect, a telematics-based solution providing proactive vehicle monitoring and maintenance management. Combined with Mack ASIST and Mack’s live OneCall uptime agents, GuardDog Connect delivers the right mix of people and technology to provide decision-critical information maximizing customer uptime.
Mack Trucks also recently launched Mack Over The Air (OTA), enabling customers to update software without disrupting their schedules, increasing operational efficiency and uptime.
