AL-KO 2t Galvanised IRS Axle – Bare

⚠️ Important Note: 4-week minimum lead time applies to this product.

Upgrade your trailer with the industry standard in independent suspension. The AL-KO IRS (Independent Rubber Suspension) axle provides a smoother, quieter, and safer towing experience compared to traditional leaf springs.

Product Description

This 2-tonne “Bare” unit is specifically engineered for heavy-duty applications, such as large boat trailers, car hauliers, or horse floats, and is built to withstand harsh environments.

Why Choose the AL-KO IRS System?

Unlike rigid axles, the AL-KO Independent Rubber Suspension system uses three rubber elements inside the axle tube to provide progressive springing and damping. This results in better road-holding, improved tyre life, and a more stable towing platform, even when unladen.

Key Features

Independent Suspension: Each wheel reacts independently to road shocks, significantly reducing vibration and “trailer bounce.”
Hot-Dipped Galvanised Finish: Superior corrosion protection, making it the ideal choice for marine and coastal use.
2-Tonne Bearing Profile: Fitted with heavy-duty stub axles designed for 2T bearing sets (50mm parallel).
Large Wheel Compatibility: Specifically geometry-optimised to suit 15″ and 16″ wheels.
Maintenance-Free Core: The internal rubber elements are self-damping and require no lubrication or adjustment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a “Bare” axle mean?

A “Bare” axle means the unit is supplied as the core axle assembly only. It excludes hubs, drums, bearings, and braking systems, allowing you to fit your own preferred components or match existing setups.

Can I use this axle for salt-water boat trailers?

Yes. The hot-dipped galvanised finish provides superior corrosion resistance, making it highly suitable for marine applications and coastal environments.

Does this suspension require regular greasing?

No. The internal rubber elements of the AL-KO IRS core are completely self-damping and maintenance-free, requiring no lubrication or regular adjustment.
