703 250 Compressor Cylinder Liner for Heavy Duty

What does a compressor cylinder liner do?

A Compressor Cylinder Liner is a critical component used to restore the cylinder bore in which the piston travels inside heavy-duty air brake compressors. By replacing a worn liner, technicians can restore the compression chamber to its original dimensions without the need to replace the entire compressor housing, making it a highly efficient repair solution.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This component is compatible with various heavy commercial vehicle applications, including Kenworth T800 and W900 models, Peterbilt 388 and 389 series, and Freightliner Cascadia or Columbia trucks. It is specifically engineered for use with Caterpillar C15, C16, and 3176 engines, as well as Detroit Diesel Series 60 engines found in many premium truck brands.

Installation and maintenance

During installation, ensure all surfaces are free of debris to maintain a proper seal. It is essential to verify that the liner dimensions match the existing housing to prevent loosening or premature wear. For optimal performance, technicians should follow the specific torque sequences and cleanliness protocols required for air brake system overhauls.

Troubleshooting air leakage

Regularly inspecting the cylinder walls for scoring or uneven wear can prevent significant air leakage and pressure loss in the braking system.
