Leaf Springs
Premium Pack
Tough Dog 4WD Leaf Springs are designed and made in Australia. Using quality BHP spring steel ensures a consistently high quality locally produced leaf spring. Tried, tested and proven in the harsh Australian outback, Tough Dog has proven to be very reliable and TOUGH in all conditions.
Tough Dog leaf springs are a truly progressive rate leaf spring. Each leaf is set slightly higher than the leaf above so there is contact along the whole length of the leaf. There is "Single Stage" and "Two Stage" springs available for different applications. When a load-carrying capacity is desired then a "Two Stage" spring can be used. This will ensure that the vehicle rides on the first stage when empty, thus ensuring a safer & comfortable ride. And when loaded the 2nd stage will progressively come into place, bumping up the spring rate and maintaining ride height. The 2nd stage section will also ensure that the 1st stage section doesn't become over stressed.
Each leaf is formed to a template, is oil quenched, hardened and tempered before being assembled. The spring is then scragged and load tested (turned inside out) to ensure that the spring retains its height. Some spring have Anti-Friction Pads inserted before assembly and graphite coated to protects the spring against corrosion.
Key Features:
- Quality Australian Made
- Precision mandrel and die formed to ensure consistency to the design specifications
- Military wrap for safety in cases of extreme abuse, if the main leaf breaks the spring should be retained in a drivable position
- A strict quality programme is adhered to, though all stages of manufacturing
- Accurately heat treated to ensure exacting quality control
- Manufactured from high grade spring steel to increase elasticity, memory, lengthen life and improved safety
- Anti friction pads are positioned between leaves to reduce friction (where applicable)
- Pre-stressed to eliminate the possibility of sagging
- Diamond cut ends reduce inter leaf friction and improve the distribution of pressure on the load bearing surfaces between leaves
- Load rate tested to ensure quality control
- 3year/60,000km warranty
