Premium Parts. Frictionless Service. 

The rTech Black Label TMR535E Torque Rod is a premium polyurethane upgrade engineered for demanding heavy-duty suspension applications. 

Built around a heavy-duty fixed torque rod with fully rotational polyurethane bushings, the TMR535E is designed to maintain axle control while allowing controlled rotational movement through the suspension. The polyurethane bushing design provides excellent resistance to oil, road contaminants, weather, and repeated suspension movement—making it an excellent choice for fleet and vocational applications where durability and uptime matter. 

Unlike conventional fixed torque rods using standard non-rebushable rubber bushings, the TMR535E uses replaceable premium polyurethane rotational bushings for a serviceable, fleet-focused design. 

Built for trucks that work.

Polyurethane Advantage 

The TMR535E replaces the conventional bushing configuration with fully rotational polyurethane bushings. 

Polyurethane offers excellent resistance to: 

• Oil and grease 
• Road salt 
• Chemicals 
• Moisture 
• Weather exposure 
• Repeated suspension movement 
• Bushing deformation under demanding service 

The rotational design allows the suspension to articulate without forcing excessive twisting into the bushing material, helping provide consistent axle control while reducing unnecessary bushing stress.

For fleets operating equipment every day, this means a torque rod designed around durability, serviceability, and uptime.
