1C442 A270A 1A Compatible Foot Brake Valve — Ford Trucks

What does a foot brake valve do?

This foot brake valve serves as a critical pneumatic component that converts pedal force into regulated air pressure within the vehicle's braking system. By metering compressed air from the reservoir, it ensures predictable and proportional stopping power for heavy commercial vehicles. Built with high-strength components, it maintains consistent performance under demanding operating conditions.

Compatible Ford Trucks models and engines

This specific part is designed for Ford Trucks vehicles, including models such as the Cargo 2530, Cargo 3230, Cargo 3530, Cargo 2524, Cargo 1824, Cargo 1830, and Cargo 2520. It is compatible with various engine configurations including Ford Dover/Dovertech (Euro 1-2) and Ecotorq 7.3 (Euro 3). Check the compatibility list.

Installation and maintenance guidance

Installation should be performed by a workshop technician to ensure correct alignment of the pedal linkage. Maintenance involves regular inspection of the M16x1,5 ports to prevent air leaks and verifying that the valve maintains the required dominance of 0,3 BAR. Periodic checks of the internal mechanism are recommended to ensure smooth pedal travel.

Troubleshooting braking performance

When troubleshooting braking issues such as a spongy pedal or uneven deceleration, inspect this valve for seal integrity and air leaks. Maintaining clean air quality within the pneumatic circuit helps prevent premature wear of the internal components.
