FUELite and FUELite 6x2 drive axles are an innovative solution for fleets looking to improve operations by reducing fuel costs and increasing payload capacities. These axles offer a broad range of ratios and gross combination weights (GCWs) to fit many applications and meet the high demands of today's down speed engines.
Features & Benefits
- Compared to a standard 6x4 tandem, the FUELite series tandem axle delivers nearly 400 lbs. in weight savings
- By replacing a drive axle in a traditional tandem with the FUELite tag axle, fleets can achieve significant weight savings and ~2 percent greater fuel efficiency*
- FUELite+ is the first 6x2 rear axle in North America to offer automatic differential lock (ADL) capability that senses slippery conditions and activates the differential lock automatically
- Meritor DualTrac™ allows running either wide-base single tires or duals for enhanced efficiency and improved residual value
- FUELite and FUELite+ 6x2 configurations are engineered with an integrated design to deliver optimum performance with genuine components and offers common wheel-ends among all axles with R-series spindles and DualTrac housing
- With a wide range of ratios (2.31 to 4.10), housing track widths and options, FUELite and FUELite+ 6x2 axles will suit the vast majority of application needs
*Fuel savings are estimates only. Actual fuel savings may vary and will depend on a variety of factors beyond the control of Cummins, Inc., including load, vehicle type, driver performance, distances travelled, vehicle speed, road conditions, etc.
