ATLANTA. Dana Inc. announced several product enhancements on Sept. 26, including the launch of the SPL 250 Lite driveshaft for heavy-duty trucks.
The new driveshaft is about 20 pounds lighter than competitive products, Steve Slesinski, director of product planning for Dana, said at a press event during the National American Commercial Vehicle show. It has been engineered to reduce noise and vibration without impacting performance, he said.
It will be formally launched in November, although some OEMs have already begun installing the driveshaft, Slesinski said.
