Our axles are forged from our facility in Italy using high-quality steel and then transported to Manchester for processing, finishing and assembly
We can supply our axles as loose components, providing the customer the flexibility to handle assembly themselves at their depot. Alternatively, we can supply it as part of our wheelset overhaul process should axle replacement be necessary. Our axles can be machined for high-speed applications to precise and demanding tolerances through to heavy duty freight and locomotive stock.
