Description

Stronger and Longer-Lasting Axle
Nothing makes a work day more stressful than busting an axle in the middle of the job. Upgrade your stock axles to SuperATV's Rhino 2.0 Axles so you can avoid an unnecessary headache. They're made out of 4340 chromoly steel and heated treated for enhanced longevity and strength—making them nearly 2 times stronger than stock. So upgrade your axles so you can get a days work done on time.

The Rhino 2.0 Formula
We've made Rhino 2.0 axles as strong as possible by using a chromoly steel alloy construction, bigger axle shafts, and maximized CV joints. We know bigger CV joints deliver higher articulation angles, keeping everything cool even during the hardest rides. So what are we calling this process? The Rhino 2.0 formula:

A massive 4mm increase in shaft size
End-to-end chromoly construction
Proprietary heat treatment

Tested and Confirmed
All of the hands in perfecting these axles set us apart from our competition. When you buy our Can-Am Defender HD5 axles, you're buying directly from the designers, engineers, testers, and manufacturers. We use the latest CAD technology for design development and then test for tolerance and strength in our lab and in real-world conditions.

18-Month Warranty
Most manufacturers provide a 12-month warranty. We're going to do you one better and pair our Rhino 2.0 axles with an 18-month warranty. Push your Can-Am Defender HD5 to its limits knowing that SuperATV has your back.
