29 06 12 Crankshaft Flange for Air Brake Compressors

What does a crankshaft flange do?

This crankshaft flange is a vital component within the air brake compressor assembly, serving as a key structural element that facilitates the conversion of reciprocating motion into pneumatic energy. Manufactured from high-strength components, it is designed to withstand the intense mechanical stresses found in heavy commercial vehicle braking systems.

Compatible vehicles and engines

The part is engineered for compatibility with several heavy-duty engines and systems, including Cummins ISBe and ISLe engines. It is suitable for use in vehicles such as Dongfeng Tianjin, KamAZ 6520, Iveco Bus Metro, and Yutong ZK6125. It also fits various models from Volkswagen Constellation, Ford Trucks Cargo, and Paz 3237.

Maintenance and installation

To ensure proper operation, technicians should inspect the flange for any signs of wear or misalignment during routine compressor maintenance. It is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems and works effectively within the integrated pneumatic circuits of heavy trucks and buses. Consult your authorized distributor to confirm exact fitment.

System reliability

Maintaining the integrity of the crankshaft flange helps prevent air pressure loss and ensures consistent braking performance across the entire pneumatic system.
