12 01 13 Crankshaft Flange for MAN Trucks

What does a compressor crankshaft flange do?

This compressor crankshaft flange serves as a critical component within the air brake compressor assembly of heavy commercial vehicles. It facilitates the precise transmission of rotational force, ensuring the compressor maintains the necessary pressure for reliable braking performance. Built from high-strength components, this part is designed to withstand the constant mechanical stress found in heavy-duty applications.

Compatible MAN vehicles and engines

This component is specifically engineered for various MAN models, including the TGA, TGX, and TGS series. It is also fitted to MAN Lion's Coach, Lion's Regio, and various HOCL/SÜ models equipped with D2066 or D2676 engines. Additionally, it finds application in HOWO trucks. This part is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems.

Maintenance and installation guidance

During maintenance or overhaul of the air brake compressor, inspecting the crankshaft flange is essential to prevent pressure loss or mechanical failure. Technicians should check for any signs of wear or misalignment during regular service intervals to ensure continuous system integrity. When replacing components in the crankshaft assembly, ensure all fastening elements are torqued to specification.

System reliability and selection

Maintaining a high-quality crankshaft flange helps prevent broader system failures within the pneumatic circuit. By using high-quality replacement parts, workshop technicians can extend the service life of the entire compressor assembly and maintain optimal braking efficiency for fleet vehicles.
