SAFIM

Founded in 1977, a family business with a passion for quality and customer satisfaction grew for 42 years.  Safim joined the DexKo Group in 2019 to grow on global scale. Our roots begin with manufacturing braking components,  developing highly customized parts, our goal is to become a system provider for electro-hydraulic vehicles’ braking functions. The main applications using our components are agriculture, material handling, mining, heavy load, aircraft tug, construction and urban cleaning.

Trailer Brake Valves

The trailer brake valve controls the synchronicity between tractor and trailer braking; the braking pressure of the tractor directly drives the trailer braking valves.
This valve type are available for different circuits: open center / load sensing-open center / load sensing – close center. Furthermore, we provide for valves responding to the CUNA regulation for the Italian market. On tractors of small dimensions, the valves are set up between the pump and the directional valve, without any safety valve connected to the circuit itself.

Master Priority Valves

Master Priority Valves enables the distribution of the hydraulic power among the different actuations of the vehicle, like the steering, the brakes, the cylinder commands, and others, following a predetermined order. Such features preserve all the main security functions of the machines respect other secondary functions, which do not affect the safety of the operator in case of malfunctioning or vehicle breaking. Master Priority Valve directly connects to the vehicle hydraulic power source.

Master Cylinders

Master cylinders convert the intensity applied on the pedal in hydraulic power, which are used to actuate the vehicle brakes.

Power Brake Valves

Power brake valves modulate the hydraulic pressure generated from an already existing source of energy of the machine and incoming to the brakes. The brake pedal controls such valves, positioned right under the same pedal.
The power applied from the operator on the pedal directly modulates the energy already present in the system. Depending on the brake type the constructor wants (soft, hard, other) components are customized in order to obtain the exact braking.
