8000 750 001 Volvo Compatible Connecting Rod & Piston

What does a connecting rod and piston do?

This compressor connecting rod and piston assembly serves as a critical internal component within the air brake compressor, facilitating the conversion of reciprocating motion into pneumatic pressure. These high-strength components are essential for maintaining optimal compression ratios and ensuring the long-term reliability of the pneumatic braking system in heavy commercial vehicles.

Compatible Volvo models and engines

The assembly is specifically engineered for a wide range of Volvo trucks, including the FL series (FL6, FL7, FL10, FL12), F12, F16, F10, and FH12 models. It is compatible with various engine configurations such as the D10A, TD102, TD122, and TD120. This part is also suitable for DAF F75, F85, and F95 models, ensuring broad coverage across heavy-duty fleets.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For workshop technicians performing maintenance or overhaul, these components must be inspected alongside the cylinder liner and piston rings to prevent air leaks or mechanical failure. When replacing these parts, ensure all mounting surfaces are clean to maintain air-tight integration within the compressor housing.

System compatibility

Proper selection ensures seamless integration with Knorr-Bremse systems. Consult your authorized distributor to confirm specific fitment for your engine series.
