LK4960 KNORR-BREMSE Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The heavy-duty twin cylinder air compressor is a vital component for maintaining consistent pneumatic pressure within the braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. Engineered with high-strength components, this part ensures reliable air production and structural stability under demanding operating conditions. Its robust construction is specifically designed to meet the rigorous requirements of professional workshop environments.

LK4960 is the OE-equivalent twin cylinder, air compressor used in KNORR-BREMSE systems. This unit features a 720cm³ swept volume and a double cylinder configuration to provide stable air output. It is engineered for seamless integration with existing pneumatic systems, ensuring that vehicle performance remains consistent during long-haul transport operations.

For workshop technicians performing maintenance or repairs, this unit features standardized M26x1,5 ports for both air inlet and outlet to ensure a precise fit. The water-cooled design provides efficient thermal management during high-load cycles. Always verify compatibility with the existing cooling lines and ensure all connections are secured according to technical specifications to maintain optimal system pressure.

Proper installation of the air compressor is critical for the longevity of the entire pneumatic braking system. Regular checks of the water inlet and outlet ports are recommended to prevent overheating and ensure that the cooling process remains efficient during heavy-duty usage.
