7000 701 100 Piston & Ring for Air Brake Compressor

What does a compressor piston and ring do?

This compressor piston and ring kit is engineered to restore the compression efficiency of pneumatic brake systems. Manufactured with high-strength components, these parts withstand the intense thermal and pressure cycles found in heavy commercial vehicle air compressors.

Compatible vehicles and engines

The kit is specifically designed for use in various heavy-duty applications, including Volvo FH, FM, FMX, VNL, and B11R/B13R models, as well as Renault Trucks K, T, and C series. It is also compatible with Mack Anthem engines and fits other heavy vehicles like Dina, Navistar, and BMC. These components are suitable for use in Bendix systems and other major pneumatic assemblies.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For professional workshop technicians, maintaining proper cylinder clearance is vital. When replacing the piston and rings, ensure the cylinder liner is inspected for wear to prevent premature failure. This kit provides a cost-effective overhaul solution for maintaining high-pressure air delivery without replacing the entire compressor unit.

Troubleshooting and selection

Always verify the piston diameter and compressor type before installation to ensure perfect fitment within the braking system.
