Kamaz 4350. Main parameters and technical properties. Video reviews and reviews

Kamaz 4350 is a four-wheel drive truck with the wheel configuration of 4 on 4. The development of devices for the transportation of 30-40 people and the possibility of operating in different conditions began in the 1970s. However, the appearance of the Mustang lineup had to wait almost 30 years. Its first representative was Kamaz 4326, which did not fully meet the requirements of the army, as it was soon replaced by other models with better maneuverability and cross-country ability.

The designers of the Kama automotive system developed three machines from the “Mustang” line at once: KAMAZ 4350 (4 by 4), KAMAZ 5350 (6 by 6) and KAMAZ 6350 (8 by 8). These vehicles differed solely by the number of axles and had a high degree of unification (up to 85%).

The first prototypes were presented in 1990, their tests began a year later and were very successful. Kama Automobile Plant was preparing to start mass production of KAMAZ 4350, but then there was a big fire, which forced to suspend the production of models. A new batch of test trucks could be assembled only in 1995. At the same time for 5 years the design of the vehicle became noticeably dilapidated. The chassis was upgraded and a new 10-speed manual gearbox was developed.

Series production of KAMAZ 4350 began in 2001. In 2007, the range of engines of the vehicle was updated (the model was equipped with a unit KAMAZ-740.31-240). Currently the production of units is continued. Most of the produced KAMAZ 4350 is designed for military purposes.

Purpose of KAMAZ 4350

KAMAZ 4350 is a unique military vehicle, one of the best in its class. The Allrain vehicle belongs to this category. It is produced by the Russian plant in the city of Navnezhnye Chelny (Russia). This truck belongs to the subsection of vehicles that are known as Mustang. Serial production of such vehicles was launched in 1997. The prototype of the model 4350 was the Kamaz 4326, but later it was replaced by the Kamaz 4350, which fully meets the military needs. All vehicles produced under this marking meet the tasks of the army, have remarkable maneuverability and good off-road capability.

Kamaz 4350 belongs to the category from the section of trucks n a-Board. They can be equipped with devices, necessary for work of frontier troops. Over time, the 4350 began to be used not only in the border troops.

A modification – 43501 TTX – was produced. In the Mustang family this model is one of the smallest. Its payload is 3,000 kg and curb weight is 7000 kg.

A characteristic feature of the army vehicles:

can overcome slopes up to 20-30 degrees;
can overcome water obstacles to a depth of 1.74 meters;
Kama-1260 tires with the parameters 425/85 R21;
Turning radius – 10 m.

Creation history and area of application

Specialists from the Kama chamber began developing a multi-purpose model of the Mustang series back in the Soviet times (1987).

According to the specified conditions the new truck had to withstand high altitude conditions and work at altitudes up to 4000 m above sea level.

In addition to the standard cargo platform, it had to be equipped with operational and tactical systems and special superstructures.

In order to reduce the cost of developing the vehicle, designers of the Kama Automobile Plant decided to unify as much as possible the nodes and parts of the novelty. As a result, the degree of unification for KAMAZ 5350 model was 85%.

The first prototypes of interesting truck were presented in the early 1990s. The experimental batch was assembled in 1995 and shown at an exhibition in Nizhny Novgorod.

The model contained all advanced technical solutions of that time (dependent spring suspensions on a base of semi-elliptic leaf springs, driving axles with two-speed gearboxes, power steering and transfer gearbox with dual variable transmission).

KAMAZ 5350 received the first in the range transverse differential locking system on the rear axle, which greatly increased its cross-country ability.

To ensure high speed off-road, the designers “awarded” the model with a range hydromechanical transmission, including a classic manual gearbox and torque converter. However, serial production of modifications with this transmission was not started. The capacity of the vehicle was significantly expanded with a winch of increased traction.

Currently, the production of KAMAZ 5350 continues. At the same time, the lineup of Mustang series is constantly expanding.

Thus, in 2004, the Kama Automobile Plant introduced two tractor trucks, a version with shortened side platform and 15-ton payload and long wheelbase truck, built on the chassis of KAMAZ 5350.

The chassis is also used on several other models: KAMAZ 53502, KAMAZ 53503, KAMAZ 53504. Some of them were used as civilian trucks with improved technical characteristics.

At the same time, the main advantage of the model is reliability and consistency. KAMAZ 5350 confidently passes bumps and bumps on rough terrain, has high maneuverability. Due to the high technical characteristics, the model is currently in demand.

Special vehicles on the KamAZ 4350 chassis:

KAMAZ-Barkhan – modified model with a hood layout and modified gearbox;
KAMAZ 3958 Highlander – a special vehicle with an armored cab and a higher protection class;
Optional equipment with radio stations (R-142H, R-142M, R-161).

What is a cabin?

Several interesting changes were made to the cabin of Mustang and 4350 models. For the first time it was changed in 2005 after parachute tests, then the cabin was strengthened and reinforced.

History also preserved information about the Kamaz 430 modification “Wasteland”, but it was not widely used in the army and the development was abandoned. The cabin of this KAMAZ model was closed, as well as the body.

The dashboard is flat, with a display that shows all engine operation, including any malfunctions. More details on fault codes can be found in the engine manual. Models are available with and without a hopper (depending on modifications and years of manufacture, as well as special order).

device

KAMAZ 4350 is the “younger” model of the “Mustang” series and has 4×4 wheel configuration. The front and rear suspensions are based on leaf springs and additionally equipped with anti-roll bars, which allow the vehicle to maintain steerability when driving on rough roads. This feature is very important for military vehicles.

The equipment intended for the army has higher requirements for cross-country ability. That is why a 5-speed manual gearbox with a three-beat shifting mechanism KAMAZ 142 (5 forward gears, 1 reverse) is installed on the KAMAZ 4350. The upgraded gearbox has increased the service life by 15-20%. The trucks are also offered with a 10-speed manual gearbox with a front splitter, which greatly increases the off-road capabilities of the vehicle.

Torque is transmitted from the engine to the transmission through a single dry friction clutch (pressure plate). There are coil springs around the periphery, and the hydraulic clutch actuator is equipped with a dog and air-hydraulic booster. The rear axle has a 2-speed transmission with lockable inter-axle differential and dual-axle drive. The front axle has a non-switching drive.

The service brake system includes a 2-circle pressure airplane, which exerts separate action on the front and rear axle brakes. The brake is controlled by a foot pedal, which is located in the cockpit. A backup brake system is used in conjunction with the parking brake to reduce speed and fully stand up. The latter is equipped with a notification actuator, which allows the force memory to be actuated in the event of a compressed air leak. An engine retarder is used to activate the auxiliary braking system, which blocks the exhaust pipes and cuts off the fuel supply to the engine. In the cab there is a system of control units that control the operation of the braking systems.

A metal cab with pneumatic seats and comfortable visibility was designed for KAMAZ 4350. The seats have several adjustments. The design of the cabin almost does not differ from other models of the Kama vehicle. In addition to heating and ventilation systems, the cab has a place for a radio. Controls are located at a convenient distance for the driver.

About continuity

Before we talked about the tire filling system from the cab. What’s in there? Few people know, but it is a very important parameter when overcoming marshy or sandy terrain. A pronounced profile and high ground clearance is not enough for the car to confidently overcome off-roading.

In order to increase the climbing area it is necessary to remove some air from the tires. This is the only way to give the vehicle an effective cross-country ability, which the “Kamaz-6350 Mustang” perfectly copes with. There are also blocks for pneumatic drive, transfer case and all-wheel drive.

Reviews say that the wide tires and properly designed chassis make this truck a true off-roader.

With a length of almost 10 meters, the machine has a maximum lift angle of 31 degrees. The depth of forced ford reaches 174 centimeters, and the ditch – 140. Maximum angle of gradients is 20 degrees.

Kamaz 4350 all-wheel drive vehicle has a multi-purpose purpose: transportation of various cargoes, installation of military structures, etc. This model has universal operational properties – 4×4 wheel arrangement and dimensions, with which it is possible to move through the streets of different purposes. Operating temperature range is from t-50 to +50. Kamaz can also be used in areas of varying difficulty with harsh climates: the vehicle retains its full power at 100% humidity, wind gusts up to 20 m/s, and its performance (except for fuel consumption) does not change even in mountainous areas at an altitude of up to 4000 m.

One of the main parts of the vehicle is the engine, so the manufacturer recommends paying a lot of attention to it. It is necessary to check the pipes, oil, air and fuel filter every day.

Oil coolants and fuel should be chosen according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Do not start when coolant temperature is below +40. The best option is +70 ° C.

The Army – the vehicle – multi-purpose

All improvements of KAMAZ-4350 models have solved the problem of providing the army units with excellent vehicles. The trucks have been repeatedly tested under different conditions. According to test results, it was concluded that the characteristics of KAMAZ 4350 and its modifications are the best for the use of a vehicle in the Air Force.

These vehicles can overcome slopes with a slope of 20%, free climbs with a surface slope of 30%, pass a water ditch with a width of 1.4 meters and easily pass a ford of 1.74 meters. The design allows the KAMAZ to overcome obstacles at a simple height of 55 cm. Road departure of these vehicles is 390 mm, and the outside turning radius is 10.3 m. The truck is equipped with Kama-1260 425/85 R21 tires.

To provide seating power the frame of the vehicle was not only shortened, but also made so that there were wheel boxes and the rear overhang of the vehicle was reduced. Additional equipment was installed on them: benches in the body for transportation of personnel and devices with tools for repair in the field.

The first test of the “Mustang” truck was conducted in 2005, as a test of the “Kamaz-4350-Bord”, as a test of the “Kamaz-4350” truck several times. The results of the tests on the parachute platform did not disappoint the designers, but forced to strengthen the cab of the vehicle, which was significantly damaged during a hard landing.

But KAMAZ “Desert” with closed taxiway and body was made only in a single copy. This vehicle did not get a wide distribution in military units after tests in real conditions. This development became mothballed.

The main base of the 4350 models uses a variety of bodies used in civilian processes. In most cases, they accommodate flatbed trucks for transporting workers and deferred buses with closed bodies. For the transportation of shift workers in the quarry fields in the absence of central streets, it is convenient to use passenger cars.

The price of such cars, depending on the mileage, ranges from 550 thousand rubles to 2,800 thousand. Like all vehicles of this Russian brand, Kamaz 4350 is easily repaired due to the availability of spare parts. You can find out the price for them directly at the factory, giving you at least 10 suppliers of these parts in the region.

Car engine and fuel consumption… Car modifications

Road surface quality. Driving on a bad road is carried out in low gears;
Winter use. Low ambient temperatures require purposeful warming up of the power unit. Engine warm-up time to operating temperature increases. This leads to increased fuel consumption;
Disruption of the integrity of the braking system. If there is a lack of air in the braking system, the wheel mechanisms are braked, which creates additional load on the power unit;
Technical condition of the engine. Wear of the piston group leads to a decrease in compression required for normal operation of the internal combustion engine;
Clogging of air filters. Clogged air masses in the intake manifold significantly increases fuel consumption;
Exceeding the permissible weight of the load. Heavy load creates a heavy load on the power source;
Poor lubrication of moving parts. Lack of lubrication in the machine’s transmission leads to friction and increased load on the truck’s engine.

The design of the model is maximum lightweight and shortened.

And folding benches inside the body also allows to transport both personnel and various loads, without having to re-equip the body, providing the versatility of this vehicle. The low landing of the body, in addition to reducing the dimensions, allowed easier loading of the body and disembarkation of personnel, which saves time in combat conditions.

KAMAZ 65115 fuel consumption per 100 km

KAMAZ-53605 vehicles use an original frame design that takes into account the significant and uneven loads during operation, including the lifting and dumping of cargo through the folding platform. Of course, the use of one drive axle instead of two under the same operating conditions simplifies both the overall design and material consumption.

How much fuel does KAMAZ consume? Technical Specifications

In particular, there is a linear base rate set for the value of 100 km, and there are standards set for the truck used in transportation. But here everything depends on the engine, which is installed on the machine, for the gasoline unit, the additional consumption is 1 liter, for the diesel version – 1.4 liters, while the gas engine requires 2.7 liters more than in normal mode of operation.
