1380457 SCANIA R490 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The air compressor is a vital component within the pneumatic braking system, ensuring the consistent air pressure required for heavy commercial vehicle safety. This twin cylinder model is engineered with high-strength components to provide reliable air generation and maintain optimal system pressure under demanding operational conditions.

This product is the OE-equivalent of the SCANIA 1380457 air compressor used in the SCANIA R490 series. It is specifically designed to meet the technical requirements of the vehicle's air brake system, ensuring seamless integration and high-performance delivery.

Designed for professional workshop technicians, this unit features a water-cooling system with specific port sizes (M18x1,5) to manage thermal loads effectively. The assembly includes a through-drive configuration and is compatible with the R490 engine/chassis setup. Maintenance of the air inlet and outlet ports is essential to ensure long-term durability and prevent system leakage.

Technical precision is maintained through the use of specialized ports such as the M26x1,5 inlet and M22x1,5 outlet. This ensures that the air compression cycle remains efficient for heavy-duty truck applications where reliability is non-negotiable.
