Standard Motor Products Introduces New ABS Sensors

Dec. 6, 2024
SMP has expanded its ABS Sensor program to nearly 2,500 SKUs, enhancing vehicle safety with accurate, durable sensors.

Standard Motor Products (SMP) continues to expand its ABS sensor program, which now includes nearly 2,500 SKUs for import and domestic vehicles, according to a news release.

Standard ABS Sensors are designed for accuracy, speed and durability, and are tested to ensure that they match OE voltage output, resistance and trigger wheel gap.

An integral component of vehicles’ advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), ABS sensors are safety-critical components that can affect how long it takes a vehicle to stop, impacting features like electronic stability control, automated braking and hill hold assist. The introduction of more advanced safety features has prompted the evolution of ABS sensors, which are now required to monitor not only the rotational speed of the wheel but also the direction of each wheel. Standard ABS sensors utilize multiple micro sensors to monitor the speed and rotation of the wheel, keeping critical safety systems operating as designed. 

Each sensor matches the OEM-designed performance for measuring speed and direction, and are engineered and tested to match OE voltage output, resistance and trigger wheel gap. Because electronic safety systems depend on real-time data, Standard ABS sensors are designed for fast processing speeds. They are constructed using a durable, synthetic material which withstands extreme temperatures and endures harsh undercar conditions to ensure longevity. Additionally, many Standard Sensors include a protective sleeve to prevent short circuits caused by chafing.

Recent additions to Standard’s ABS sensor program introduce coverage for over 9 million General Motors vehicles, including 2024-20 heavy-duty trucks, the 2024-20 Cadillac CT4, and the 2022-15 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon. Further new coverage for domestic vehicles includes SKUs for the 2024-22 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Wagoneer, 2024-19 Ram 1500 and 3500, 2022-21 Ford EcoSport, and more. Additionally, coverage has been added for popular import vehicles like the 2024-20 Nissan Sentra, 2022-19 Toyota Prius, 2020-18 Honda Accord and 2020-18 Hyundai Santa Fe.

Commenting on the Standard ABS sensor program, John Herc, vice president of vehicle control marketing at SMP, said, “ABS sensors are critically important to the safety of occupants in today’s vehicles, and ensuring that electronic safety systems are operating properly is of utmost importance. You can count on Standard to provide ABS Sensors that operate the way they’re intended to and last.”

All Standard ABS Sensors are listed in the eCatalog found at StandardBrand.com and in electronic catalog providers.
