1796663 SCANIA T580 Twin Cylinder Air Compressor

The twin cylinder air compressor is a vital component within the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. Engineered to provide consistent air pressure, this unit ensures the reliable operation of the braking and suspension systems. Built with high-strength components, it maintains peak performance under rigorous heavy-duty operating conditions.

179663 is the OE-equivalent twin cylinder air compressor used in the SCANIA T580. This component is specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the SCANIA vehicle platform. The precision-engineered dimensions, including the Ø88.00 cylinder bore and 50 mm stroke, ensure seamless integration with existing pneumatic architectures.

For workshop technicians, this water-cooled unit features specialized ports including an M26x1,5 air inlet and M18x1,5 water ports for optimal thermal management. The inclusion of the ESS feature and through-drive capability ensures high-level compatibility with standard heavy vehicle engine configurations. Regular maintenance of the cooling lines and checking port integrity is recommended during routine service intervals.

Proper installation requires verifying all thread specifications such as the M22x1,5 air unloader port to prevent leakage. This component is designed for professional assembly in heavy commercial vehicle service environments to maintain system pressure stability.
