K001268X00 KNORR-BREMSE Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The K001268X00 is a high-performance Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor designed to maintain consistent air pressure within heavy commercial vehicle braking systems. Engineered with high-strength components, this air compressor ensures reliable operation under demanding industrial conditions. Its water-cooled design and precision-engineered ports provide optimal thermal management during heavy-duty service cycles.

K001268X00 is the OE equivalent of the KNORR-BREMSE K001268X00 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor used in KNORR-BREMSE systems. This component features a cylinder bore of Ø88.00 and a stroke of 50 mm, delivering a swept volume of 608cm³. It is specifically designed for integration into professional heavy commercial vehicle pneumatic architectures.

For workshop technicians, this unit features an M26x1,5 air outlet port and an M22x1,5 air unloader port to ensure seamless assembly. The presence of the ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate ensures the part meets stringent technical requirements for durability. Proper installation and regular inspections of the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1,5) are essential for maintaining system integrity.

Maintenance of the air brake compressor system is critical for vehicle safety. Technicians should verify that all port connections are secure and that the water cooling path remains unobstructed to prevent overheating during long-haul operations.
