If you operate Scania trucks in Africa, Asia, or South America, you know that reliability and torque handling are everything. The Scania GRS900R gearbox with integrated retarder is one of the most durable and advanced manual transmissions Scania has produced — built to handle heavy loads and long-distance haulage.


At Britannia Export Consultants Ltd, we stock and export tested Scania GRS900R manual gearboxes with retarders, ready for installation or resale. Each unit is inspected, cleaned, and prepared for shipment to any international destination.

🧠 Why the Retarder Matters


The retarder is a hydraulic braking system built into the gearbox.

It provides additional braking power on descents without wearing out the wheel brakes — a huge advantage for long downhill routes or heavy loads.


✅ Reduces brake wear

✅ Increases safety

✅ Extends service life of the truck


For African and export markets where trucks face demanding terrain, a gearbox with retarder is a premium upgrade worth every euro.
