The world's premier traction aid, the ARB Air Locker(TM), supports driving in any situation. With the push of a switch, the lock engages instantly, and its ultra-durable design allows for operation at any speed, making it capable of handling the most extreme terrain. The advantage of the Air Locker lies in its pneumatic locking system housed within the differential. When engaged, the Air Locker prevents the internal differential gears from rotating, thereby stopping the axle shafts from spinning independently of each other. Because both wheels are locked to the rotation of the ring gear, the vehicle always maintains maximum traction. When disengaged, it functions just like a conventional open differential. Vehicles equipped with an Air Locker can travel safely and stably at low speeds, significantly reducing the risk of vehicle damage and environmental impact.
