How does the ARB Air Locker work?

When you flip the switch, compressed air engages a locking mechanism inside the differential. This prevents the internal gears from rotating independently, forcing both axle shafts to turn at the same speed as the ring gear.

Can I activate the Air Locker at any speed?

Yes, the super strong design of the ARB Air Locker allows for activation at any speed. This means you can engage it when you suddenly encounter difficult terrain.

What else do I need to install the ARB Air Locker?

Installation requires an air compressor system and the appropriate wiring for the dash switch. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for a complete list of requirements and procedures.

Product Details

The world's premier traction aid, an ARB Air Locker keep you moving in all conditions. With the flick of the switch an Air Locker gives instant lock at any moment and its super strong design allows activation at any speed allowing you to tackle the toughest terrain. The advantage of the Air Locker lies in the pneumatically operated locking system inside the differential. When activated, the Air Locker prevents the internal differential gears from rotating and therefore prevents the axle shafts from turning independently of each other. With both wheels tied directly to the rotation of the ring gear, the vehicle maintains maximum possible traction at all times. When unlocked, it operates like an conventional open differential. An Air Locker equipped vehicle can be driven in an slower, safer and more controlled manner, greatly reducing the likelihood of vehicle damage and environmental impact.
