The Hutch 9700 Series remains the
leader in our long and distinguished line of
trailer suspension systems. Hutch Suspensions
incorporate innovative thinking that results
in a durable and reliable system that not only
extends service life, reduces downtime and
protects your cargo – but also provides a
smooth and comfortable ride.
The 9700 Series can be assembled in
single, tandem or multi-axle configurations.
In addition, mounting heights from 6" to
20+" are easily achieved. The 9700 Series
offers axle spacings from 42" to
121" and comfortably adapts to round,
square or rectangular axles. A wide variety of
springs offer suspension capacities from
22,400 up to 25,000 lbs/axle. All 9700 Series
suspensions are available with either
fabricated (shown here) or cast steel spring
hangers and rockers. These hangers come in a
wide variety of styles designed to fit
numerous mounting requirements. Whether your
frame is tubular, I-beam, C-channel or a
G-rail, Hutchens has a spring hanger
configuration to meet your needs. We also have
a package specifically designed for tank
trailer applications that utilizes cast
rockers and cast torque arm eye-ends.
