    Air brakes are an effective way to reduce a train’s speed

    Air brakes are an effective way to reduce a train’s speed by using compressed air. These brakes are the primary means of stopping trains, buses and large trucks. They use a spring-loaded piston that is pushed by air pressure to apply the brakes. The air pressure is generated by an engine-driven co

  • Why choose Spring Brake Cylinder?

    Why choose Spring Brake Cylinder?

    A spring brake cylinder (also known as a DD3 safety chamber) is found on the rear axle of most heavy trucks. It is used for parking and emergency braking in case the service brakes fail. The system works by supplying air to one side of a diaphragm inside the bra

  • The Use of Spring Brake System

    The Use of Spring Brake System

    The brake system on a truck requires high levels of air pressure to stop and begin moving again. Long-haul trips often require the driver to pump the brakes many times over for hours at a time. This can cause the brakes to lose their high-pressure state and they may start to fail. Trucks equipped wi
