LK4960 KNORR-BREMSE Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

This twin cylinder air compressor is a critical component designed to ensure reliable pneumatic pressure within heavy commercial vehicle air brake systems. Engineered with a high-strength construction, it provides consistent air delivery through its specialized dual-cylinder architecture to maintain optimal system pressure during heavy-duty operation.

LK4960 is the OE-equivalent of the KNORR-BREMSE Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor used in KNORR-BREMSE systems. This precision-engineered part features a Ø92.00 mm cylinder bore and a 54 mm stroke, delivering a swept volume of 720cm³. It is specifically designed for compatibility with professional heavy commercial vehicle braking systems that require high-strength components and consistent performance.

For workshop technicians, this unit features water cooling (W) with M16x1,5 inlet and outlet ports to manage thermal loads effectively. The air inlet and outlet ports are configured with M26x1,5 threads to ensure a secure, leak-free connection. Proper installation requires verifying the water cooling lines and ensuring the through-drive mechanism is correctly aligned with the engine drive to maintain long-term service intervals and system integrity.
