Sliding Caliper

Haldex ModulX ™
the disc brake for heavy
commercial vehicles
Compact modular design,
increased stability
and full unhandedness

With the Disc Brake ModulX System


for wheel sizes 17.5”, 19.5”, and 22.5”,
Haldex brings significant features to disc
brake technology. No matter what kind
of heavy vehicle manufacturing industry
you are in, Haldex has the disc brake
solution for you.

Why the family name ModulX?

Firstly, the modular design that makes


us flexible for customer adaptations.

Secondly, the unhandedness, enabling


the same brake to be fitted to a left- or
right-handed wheel while minimizing
the number of spare parts.

Thirdly, ModulX is the only disc brake


on the market to use quadruple slide pins,
which means slide pins on both sides of
the disc. This gives increased stability,
vibration resistance and low noise.

The ModulX family includes


disc brakes for 17”, 19.5”, 22”
and 22.5” wheel sizes. Radial
disc brakes for 22.5” wheel
applications are included
in the product range for trucks,
buses and trailers.

Being in the forefront of disc brake technology,
the Haldex ModulX disc brake concept not only

It means cost savings by reducing the number
of spare parts, cutting weight and extended
service intervals.
