26 15 12 Crankshaft Flange compatible with Volvo and Renault

What does a compressor crankshaft flange do?

This compressor crankshaft flange serves as a critical component in the air brake compressor assembly, facilitating the transfer of rotational motion within the pneumatic system. Manufactured with heavy-duty grade materials, it ensures stable performance and durability under high-pressure operating conditions common in heavy commercial vehicle applications.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This component is fitted to various heavy commercial vehicle models including Volvo FM, FH (FH4/FH5), FMX, B11R, B13R, and VNL series with D11K, D13K, D13, or D16K engines. It is also compatible with Renault Trucks T, K, and C models featuring DTI13 or DTI11 engines. Additionally, it is used in Mack Anthem (MP8) and various other heavy duty vehicles such as Navistar and Dina trucks.

Installation and maintenance guidance

When performing maintenance or overhaul on the air brake compressor, technicians should verify the flange thickness and bolt hole configuration to ensure a perfect fit. Proper installation prevents excessive vibration and air leakage within the compressor housing. Consult your authorized distributor to ensure exact fitment for your specific engine configuration.

Troubleshooting and selection

Regular inspection of the crankshaft flange can help prevent sudden pneumatic system failures. Monitoring for signs of uneven wear or vibration can help identify potential issues before they lead to compressor breakdown.
