1350 kg Unbraked Torsion Axle – Knott Idler Half Axle with 5×112 for European Caravans
This Knott 1350 kg unbraked torsion axle is a compact OEM idler half axle designed for European caravans, camping trailers, light utility trailers and micro campers. With no braking system required, this 1350 kg unbraked torsion axle offers a simple, cost-effective independent suspension solution for lightweight trailers where overrun mechanical brakes are unnecessary or not mandated.
Engineered to Knott-compatible specifications, this half axle features independent rubber-damped torsion suspension that allows each wheel to move separately, delivering a smoother, quieter ride than traditional leaf spring setups. The forged torsion arm and high-strength steel construction handle loads up to 750 kg with ease, while the 5×112 mm bolt pattern matches standard European compact wheels commonly used on small caravans and camping trailers.
