Air suspension increases the transport capabilities of trucks and trailers by providing a better grip that levels the entire suspension. An air suspension system can also be adjusted for feel, so drivers can choose between a softer feel for highway cruising or a harder ride for improved handling on more demanding roads.

Installation

Though they have comparable capabilities, air springs are much cheaper than pneumatic cylinders and other springs. When deflated, air springs have a small footprint, making them easy to manipulate and connect to machinery.

Maintenance

Air springs tend to have low maintenance routines and some manufacturers state their air springs are maintenance-free (set and forget). Air springs do not require lubrication, nor do they have seals or guides that may become misaligned or damaged like with other springs. Indeed, the bellows of air springs are prone to dry rot, though this could take years to develop. Air springs should be stored in dry, dark areas at room temperature.

Environment

Due to its durability and simplicity, air springs are good for most industrial and commercial applications. Rubber and neoprene are susceptible to dry rot, so dehumidified conditions could shorten the service life of an air spring. Both rubber and neoprene are suitable for use in high/low temperature applications, but have considerably less heat tolerance than metal spring options. While usable up to 65°C, neoprene should not be used below -40°C, and rubber shouldn't be used in sites below -60°C.
