K008457000 KNORR-BREMSE Single Cylinder, Air Compressor

This single cylinder air compressor is designed to provide consistent pneumatic pressure for heavy commercial vehicle braking systems. Engineered with high-strength components, it ensures reliable operation within the air brake system architecture. The unit features a robust water-cooled design to maintain optimal operating temperatures during heavy-duty service cycles.

K008457000 is the OE-equivalent of the KNORR-BREMSE Single Cylinder, Air Compressor used in KNORR-BREMSE systems. This component is precision-engineered to match the exact specifications required for seamless integration into the vehicle's pneumatic circuit. It serves as a critical part for maintaining the air supply necessary for stable braking performance.

For workshop technicians, this unit features a standard M26x1,5 air inlet and M18x1,5 air outlet configuration. The water cooling ports are sized at M16x1,5 for straightforward installation and thermal management. Proper maintenance of the cooling lines and checking the connection integrity is essential for long-term reliability in heavy commercial vehicle applications.

The assembly process requires attention to the through-drive mechanism and the specific water inlet/outlet ports to ensure efficient heat dissipation. Regular inspection of the cylinder bore and stroke functionality helps in preventing unexpected downtime in fleet operations.
