Axle Flange
Flanges available from a factory source.
A. Preparing the Brake Mounting Surface
Before installing the brake, check the
concentricity and squareness of the brake
drum to the hub and spindle. To do this,
mount the drum on the spindle according
to the manufacturer’s specifications.
The following tolerances must be held:
Drum friction surface concentric to spindle
centerline within .015-inch T.I.R. (Total Indicator
Reading).
Armature surface square to spindle within
.020-inch T.I.R.
B. Installing on Axle Flanges
1. The axle flange on which the brake mounts
must have a 4.500/4.498-inch pilot diameter.
2. This axle flange must be welded concentric
to the spindle within .015-inch T.I.R.
(measured at the pilot diameter). The axle
must be square to the spindle within
.010-inch T.I.R. (measured at the brake
mounting surface). Refer to drawing I-26117.
