16 06 11 Cylinder Head for DAF 85 CF and 95 XF

What is a compressor cylinder head?

A compressor cylinder head is a critical component within the air brake compressor assembly that manages the combustion or compression chamber where air is pressurized. This component ensures the structural integrity of the compression cycle, maintaining the necessary pressure levels required for safe braking operations in heavy commercial vehicles.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This cylinder head is specifically designed for compatibility with various DAF models, including the 85 CF, 95 XF, XF95, and F95 series. It is also fitted to Bova Magiq, Synergy, and Futura trucks, as well as Ginaf X-Series vehicles. For optimal performance, ensure the part matches the specific compressor architecture used in your vehicle.

Maintenance and installation

When performing maintenance or overhauling a pneumatic system, inspecting the cylinder head for wear or leaks is essential. Technicians should verify that all sealing surfaces are clean to maintain an air-tight integration within the compressor unit. This part is compatible with WABCO systems.

System reliability and selection

Proper selection of the cylinder head prevents pressure drops and ensures consistent air delivery to the braking system. Always check the compressor's own reference number to ensure correct fitment across different engine options.
