Description
What does a compressor cylinder head do?
This compressor cylinder head acts as the essential cast service component that sits on top of an air brake compressor's cylinder block. It is designed to seal the compression chamber from above, allowing workshop technicians to rebuild a compressor in place rather than replacing the entire unit. This component directly governs both the air output and the operating temperature of the compressor.Vehicle and system compatibility
This part is compatible with WABCO systems. It is specifically engineered to withstand the high-pressure environments found in heavy commercial vehicle air systems, ensuring stable performance during sustained loads.Installation and maintenance guidance
When replacing this component, technicians should verify the compressor's architecture, as heads may vary between single-cylinder and twin-cylinder configurations. Proper installation ensures that the internal air passages and valve seats remain perfectly aligned to prevent pressure loss or overheating. Consult your authorized distributor for fitment guidance.Related Products

FAQ
What is the function of a compressor cylinder head?
It sits on top of the cylinder block to seal the compression chamber, managing air output and internal temperature.
Can this part be used for any air brake compressor?
Selection must be based on the specific compressor architecture and reference numbers to ensure correct fitment.
What are common symptoms of a faulty cylinder head?
Potential issues include loss of air pressure or abnormal running temperatures within the braking system.
Is it better to replace the whole compressor or just the head?
Replacing the cylinder head allows for a cost-effective rebuild of the existing unit during routine maintenance.
