Airtek is featured as the standard front axle and suspension system on VNL 630, 670 and 780 models. Fleets and owner-operators can specify Airtek as an option on small sleeper and day cab VNL models, as well as all VNM models.

Airtek is available from Volvo in 12,000-, 12,500-, 13,200- and 14,600-lb. capacities and is standard with unitized wheel ends. The unitized hubs reduce maintenance intervals and contribute to lowering system weight.
