Webb Severe Duty has released a lineup of Webb Vortex brake drums for applications such as refuse trucks that are subjected to a higher frequency of braking stops compared to standard commercial vehicles.

The Webb Vortex severe duty drum designs dissipate brake heat and lower the average brake operating temperature versus the performance of standard brake drums, lowering lifecycle costs for these types of operations.
 
The new Webb Vortex™ severe duty drums were designed for and tested in the refuse industry. Six new drums are available for 16.5x5”, 16.5x6”, 16.5x7”, 16.5x8” and 16.5x8.62” brake sizes to fit multiple applications.
