7500 920 004 Crankshaft Flange for Air Brake Compressors

What does a crankshaft flange do?

This compressor crankshaft flange is a critical component within the air brake compressor assembly of heavy commercial vehicles. It serves as a vital link in the pneumatic system, ensuring the stable transfer of rotational force during the compression stroke. Built with high-strength components, this part is designed to withstand the intense mechanical stress found in heavy-duty air brake systems.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This component is widely used in heavy commercial vehicles including Kenworth T800, Peterbilt 379, and Mack TITAN models. It is specifically engineered to work with Caterpillar C7, C9, C11, C13, C15, and C18 engines. Additionally, it is fitted to various models from Sterling, Freightliner, International, and Western Star trucks to ensure reliable pneumatic performance.

Installation and maintenance

When performing maintenance on air brake compressors, technicians should inspect the flange for signs of wear or axial clearance issues. Ensuring a precise fitment is essential for maintaining the integrity of the crankshaft assembly and preventing premature failure of the compressor unit. Proper installation ensures optimal air pressure delivery for braking systems.

Maintenance guidance

For efficient fleet maintenance, replacing worn components during scheduled service intervals helps avoid unexpected downtime. This flange is an essential part of comprehensive repair kits used to overhaul the crankshaft assembly in heavy-duty applications. Consult your authorized distributor.
