HEGS: hydraulic, electric sliding caliper

The best of two worlds combined: a hydraulic service brake with an electric parking brake function - and finally for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes as well.

KNOTT has added a distinctive feature to its proven hydraulic service brake: the electric parking brake function! What has long been standard on cars up to 3.5 tonnes is now also arriving in agriculture for vehicles up to 10 tonnes.

Our decades of experience in the sector have had a lasting influence on the development. The HEGS is therefore of course fully suitable for off-road use, waterproof and designed for extreme temperatures from -40° C to 90° C. The self-locking safety function and the simple mechanical emergency release provide complete reliability, and the automatic adjustment and readjustment keep the maintenance effort as low as possible.

Thanks to its light construction with freely selectable connection positions, the HEGS can be used almost anywhere and can be operated either hydraulically or with brake fluid.

Advantages and details:
- For vehicles from 3.5 t - 10 t
- Sizes: from 1x34 - 1x56
Clamping force: 2600 - 5400 Nm
- Actuation time < 1.5 sec
- Protection class IP67: suitable for off-road use
and much more
