A-Frame Kit 785B-AFK/EP to suit Caterpillar 785 Haul Trucks

A-Frame

OEM Ref: 785B-AFK/EP Geo Ref: 11528852

Geographe Enhanced Performance™ (EP) parts are specifically engineered to solve common challenges mine sites face, optimising the performance, durability, and efficiency of machinery used in mining operations.

Enhanced Performance parts incorporate advanced materials, innovative designs, and rigorous testing by enhancing the current design, offering superior resistance to wear, corrosion, and impact, resulting in extended service life and reduced downtime to achieve operational excellence.

Due to harsh operating conditions, pins and spherical bearings in A-Frame assemblies located on the A-Frame pivot are prone to seizing, making extraction time-consuming. After hearing about the challenge of standard OEM A-Frame assemblies, Geographe developed the Enhanced Performance A-Frame Kit. The collets in the assembly expand into Geographe’s custom non-split cap bores, securing into place and eliminating unwanted movement between the pin and caps. The design eliminates the shimming required with the OEM standard set-up and reduces the likelihood of corrosion-causing problems, all of which can contribute to dismantling difficulties.
Safer work environment for maintenance teams by eliminating the need for hot work Predictable maintenance outcomes, with pin seizure reduced Reduced labour costs and risk to maintenance personnel due to fewer premature failures

“The Caterpillar Haul Truck Ball Stud Removal Tool has reduced the time to remove ball studs from 12 hours per truck to just 1 hour. The risk of damaging jacks throughout the process has also been removed. This initiative represents a significant cost and time reduction while also improving safety for our maintainers.”
