The full model range includes the LTG27F steering drive axle, LTG27R steering drive axle, LTG32 steering drive axle, LTG43 steering drive axle, and the flagship LTG55 steering drive axle models, fully covering the entire adaptation range of forklift load capacities.Among them, the LTG27 is suitable for light-tonnage forklift loading, the LTG32 is suitable for light-to-medium forklift loading, the LTG43 is suitable for medium forklift loading, and the LTG55 is professionally suitable for medium-to-heavy telescopic forklift loading with a capacity of 4.5-5 tons. Shandong Lutong can provide a full range of universal axle support solutions for the largest forklift manufacturers.

Telehandlers operate in complex and harsh conditions, such as dirty construction sites, uneven ground, and gravel yards, year-round and often perform lifting, steering, driving, and start-stop operations.As the main bearing and safety component of the entire machine, the quality and operational stability of the drive axle directly determine the oil consumption, operational safety, failure frequency, and service life of the entire machine.Low-quality axles are prone to brake failures, wheel slippage, body vibration, high-frequency breakdowns, and other issues, which severely impact the quality reputation and ultimate acceptance of equipment manufacturers in the global market.As a professional manufacturer of drive axles for construction machinery, Shandong Lutong has long specialized in the research and development, custom production, and batch supply of special drive axles for telescopic forklift loading, fully meeting the requirements of global equipment manufacturers and quality standards.During the research, development, and design phase of the LTG55 flagship axle, our company fully integrated the characteristics of heavy-duty off-road conditions, variable load operation, and long-term continuous heavy-duty work to optimize the design and performance adjustments, achieving a comprehensive and balanced enhancement of steering precision, output torque, braking stability, and chassis safety. This is an advanced, stable, and highly reliable main auxiliary chassis equipment suitable for telescopic fork loading projects with a capacity of 4.5 to 5 tons.

Shandong Lutong Company is located in Feicheng City, Tai'an City, Shandong Province. It specializes in research and development, precision manufacturing, and standardized series supply of heavy-duty drive axles for construction machinery. Its products include grader drive axles, loader drive axles, underground scraper axles, agricultural tractor drive axles, and LTG Company offers a full range of telescopic forklift drive axles for loading and unloading. The company has established long-term and stable cooperative relationships with many well-known equipment manufacturers both domestically and internationally.

The factory is equipped with a complete set of precision CNC machining workshops, standardized assembly workshops, and professional laboratories for axle bench testing. The entire line strictly complies with the full process of production control and inspection of the ISO9001 quality management system. Each finished axle, before leaving the factory, undergoes rigorous load, fatigue, and braking efficiency tests to ensure stable quality of the delivered products. Relying on rich overseas support experience, the products are exported to Russia, India, Turkey, Central Asia, and other regions of the world, and can provide equipment manufacturers from different countries with a full cycle of technical services, such as program coordination, parameter selection, trial sample production, and batch supply, as well as establish long-term and stable strategic cooperative relationships with partner enterprises.

Advantages of the LTG55 steering drive axle main product

1. Integrated wet road and parking brake system, providing large, stable, and reliable braking torque

The LTG55 steering drive axle is equipped with an integrated wet braking system for the service brake and parking brake. The service brake and parking brake are designed as a single combined unit, forming a set of high-performance wet composite brake assemblies that structurally optimize the axle's braking response and load resistance.

Unlike traditional dry brake designs, the wet brake system operates in a fully oil-filled sealed and closed environment, effectively isolating external dust, dirt, gravel, and rainwater erosion. During prolonged operation under heavy-duty and high-frequency braking conditions, it can consistently deliver large and stable braking torque, ensure sensitive braking response, eliminate hidden risks of brake failure, effectively reduce wear on brake components and the frequency of unscheduled maintenance, lower the failure rate of the main machine, and significantly enhance the safety of loading operations for 4.5 to 5-ton telescopic forklifts.

2. High-friction limited-slip differential with friction discs, providing excellent off-road capability in challenging road conditions.

The LTG55 is equipped with a high-efficiency self-locking friction differential with a plate-type drive. When the telescopic fork is loaded and moving on dirty and slippery roads, uneven and cut-up ground, as well as in difficult climbing conditions, the increased-friction differential can actively distribute torque to the left and right drive wheels in real time.

Completely eliminate the problems of one wheel idling and power loss caused by uneven ground traction, significantly improve off-road passability and the walking stability of the entire machine, adapt the vehicle with a fork load of 4.5 to 5 tons to more complex operating scenarios, and create a distinctive competitive advantage for all equipment of the host factory presented on the global market.

3. Integrated design of the slewing frame, lower center of gravity of the vehicle, higher operational safety

The LTG55 axle design uses a one-piece slewing frame. The optimized structural design effectively lowers the overall center of gravity of a 4.5–5 tonne telehandler. When lifting heavy loads, traveling at high speed, and making sharp turns, the vehicle body remains stable without shaking.

The integrated slewing frame increases the overall rigidity of the structure and the chassis’s resistance to tipping over, effectively reducing the risk of rollover under extreme operating conditions, comprehensively improving the passive safety of the base machine, and helping telehandler manufacturers improve the overall safety level and quality of their products.

4. Modular design, flexible spacing between installations, fast and efficient matching of components

LTG55 adopts a standardized modular design concept, and the main installation dimensions and node spacing can be flexibly adjusted according to different chassis layouts and structural requirements.

For equipment manufacturers developing new telescopic forks with a load capacity of 4.5–5 tons, the modular design significantly shortens the R&D cycle for new products, avoids rework on chassis accessories, and reduces R&D costs and the burden on equipment manufacturers. Our technical team can quickly adjust parameters, conduct sample testing and verification, rapidly achieve mass production, and accelerate the launch of new products to market.

5. Professional fit for telescopic loaders weighing 4.5–5 tons

The LTG55 steering drive axle is precisely adapted to telescopic forks with a lifting capacity of 4.5 to 5 tons and similar loading and unloading equipment. It is suitable not only for developing new models but also for upgrading chassis and replacing old models with a 4.5 to 5 ton forklift capacity.

In addition to the LTG55 model, Shandong Lutong supports a full range of forklift axles and also offers more advanced models LTG27, LTG32, and LTG43, which can meet the requirements of equipment manufacturers for full-tonnage forklift mounting.
