TRE AIR LOCKER SPECIFICATION TRE Air Locker was designed for traction aid, it is a driver controlled locking differential to give wheels 100% traction when extra traction is required, the driver turns on the TRE Air Locker via convenient switches. Once engaged, the TRE Air Locker operates by locking in both axles and deliver equal traction to both wheels. Then an equal amount of the engine torque is transferred to both wheels, providing you the 100% traction through situations where you may have not previously been able to. TRE Air Locker with simple and straightforward operation. Using compressed air, the internal selector ring will activate the locking ring. Once the TRE Air Locker is engaged it forms a solid traction between the carrier and the side gears. The differential is now locked and will deliver 100% traction to both axles. Deactivating the TRE Air Locker by mounted switch. The springs pull the locking ring back out of engagement with the side gear, returning the differential to normal as before.

New Features and technology: ‘2-piece’ Forged Case Style Design Never stop chasing better achievements, TRE 4x4 team is Dedicated to the constant improvement and evolution of our Air Locker product lines. During the last few years, TRE’s Air Locker technical staffs have been quietly moving from a ‘3-piece’ air locker case design to the stronger forged ‘2-piece’ style, in addition to packing some more innovations inside the TRE Air Locker. Delivering a phenomenal 40% improvement in static torque strength compared with the equivalent ‘3-piece’ design, the ‘2-piece’ style is now available across the entire TRE Air Locker range. This means no new TRE Air Lockers use the old three-piece technology anymore. Beside this, the stronger ‘2-piece’ style case is made from forged 8620 nickel -chromium-molybdenum tool steel.
Forged Gears Besides the updated case design, forged side gear sets are Now being used across the entire TRE Air Locker production lines. TRE side gears are made from 4320 chromoly alloy steel, which has high toughness and strength. These precision gears have an increased load carrying capacity and fatigue strength. Forged gears are typically found in the most demanding applications such as heavy industrial, commercial, racing, and agriculture transmissions. From a metallurgical standpoint, there is no stronger way to produce a gear. This is because the forging process produces a part whose internal molecular grain flow closely conforms to the shape of each individual tooth. This cannot be achieved with other producing ways.
New Warranty TRE Air Locker utilized the ‘2-piece’ forged case and the forged alloy steel gears, means TRE air locker will works more time on road without problem, it makes TRE can offer longer Warranty period to all customers. From Dec 2014 moving forward, all ‘2-piece’ Air Lockers sold are now supported by a 5 year warranty free from defects in materials and workmanship, increasing from the previous 2 year coverage.
