Description

What does a cylinder head do?

A compressor cylinder head is the cast service component that sits on top of an air brake compressor's cylinder block and seals the compression chamber from above. This part is essential for maintaining the integrity of the compression cycle and governs both the air output and the operating temperature of the unit.

Compatibility and application

This component is compatible with Bendix systems. It is designed to allow workshop technicians to rebuild a compressor in place rather than replacing the entire assembly, providing a cost-effective solution for maintaining heavy commercial vehicle fleets.

Installation and maintenance

When performing installation, technicians should inspect the cylinder block surface and ensure all ports are clear. Proper seating of the head is vital to prevent air leaks and maintain consistent pressure levels throughout the braking system. Consult your authorized distributor for fitment guidance.
