BENDIX ULTIMATE TOW ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROLLERS

Bendix says all drivers who tow can benefit from having an electronic brake controller

The rear fit kit has also been changed to accommodate the KDSS system, which previously meant BP-51s were not applicable to this model.

The BP-51 is a user adjustable internal bypass 4WD shock absorber that delivers increased comfort and control; both on and off road.

All BP-51 shock absorbers are designed and manufactured in-house by ARB using state-ofthe-art machining and hard anodising equipment.

The body of a BP-51 shock absorber is manufactured using 6061 anodised aluminium to dissipate heat more efficiently than steel or alloy steel and provide superior corrosion resistance.

ARB says extensive dyno, real world and destructive testing has been undertaken during the development process to ensure that reliability, longevity and performance all meet its impeccable standards.

Bendix says its Ultimate Tow electronic brake controller features its own unique braking algorithm, ensuring superior performance and reliability in demanding local conditions. When hitched to trailers and caravans with electric brakes, the electric brake controller activates and controls the braking force supplied by the electric brakes in the caravan or trailer whenever the driver in the tow vehicle applies the brakes.

The controller allows braking to be easily modulated by adjusting the dial left for a lower setting or right for maximum setting.

Bendix Ultimate Tow also features an override function – if the driver notices that the trailer/ caravan is swaying, they press the same dial to engage the override, which applies the trailer brakes independently without the tow vehicle brakes needing to be on, pulling the trailer or caravan into line and minimising the swaying affect.

Other safety features include an open circuit and trailer disconnection indicator.

Ultimate Tow is suitable for installation in a wide range of popular vehicles and is compatible with the ALKO ESC systems fitted to many caravans and trailers.
