TRAILER BRAKE SERVICES
AIR BRAKE MAINTENANCE
Ensuring the proper maintenance of your trailer’s brakes is a proactive step toward preserving its performance. As time passes, your brake pads naturally wear down and will eventually require replacement. While brake adjusters compensate for this wear to some extent, the brake pads will ultimately reach a point of unusability. Additionally, it’s essential to keep an eye on other critical components such as your airbags, which can develop leaks or encounter road debris. Weather conditions can also impact them, so regular inspections are crucial. At AFS, we provide comprehensive services for every aspect of your air system, covering everything from brake pads to airbags and everything in between.
SUSPENSION AND BRAKES
Ensuring the proper upkeep of your dry van trailer’s suspension and brake systems is paramount. Without reliable trailer brakes, your truck might struggle to bring your rig to a halt. At AFS, we provide a comprehensive range of trailer brake services, encompassing airline repairs, brake pad replacements, slack adjuster calibration, and an array of other essential services. On the suspension front, we specialize in airbag repairs, air compressor maintenance, air line replacements, and various related services to keep your trailer in top-notch condition.
AIR LINE INSPECTION
During the chilly winter season, airlines can succumb to freezing and subsequently malfunction. This problem usually arises when moisture infiltrates these lines, often due to a malfunctioning air dryer. For those who may not be familiar, your air dryer’s primary role is to eliminate moisture from your compressed air system, precisely to prevent this type of issue. If your airlines freeze, they run the risk of breaking and disrupting the functioning of various air systems. Among these, components reliant on compressed air include your brake assemblies and your air suspension system.
BRAKE PAD CHANGES
When was the last time you gave your trailer breaks some attention? If it’s been a while, or if you’ve lost track of the miles they’ve endured, we strongly advise scheduling a service appointment. Our experts will assess your brake pads to determine their remaining lifespan, and if it’s time for a replacement, we’ll install a fresh set. It’s a common misconception that you’ll notice obvious signs when your brake pads are worn down, but typically, such indicators only become apparent when they’re in very poor condition, thanks to the protective function of your brake adjuster. Knowing the right time to replace these brake pads is crucial. Most manufacturers recommend changing them once every 50,000 miles. Your safety on the road depends on it.
