    How to Adjust Wedge Brakes

    Wedge brakes are another type of air drum brake found on some heavy trucks. They use a push rod that directly contacts the brake shoes and drum, pushing the brake shoe linings against the drum. Unlike cam brakes, wedge brakes have no exposed brake linkage and don’t require frequent manual ad

    How to Adjust a Wedge Brake Chamber

    Brake chambers pack the power and force in your vehicle’s braking system, converting pressurized air from the brake pump into mechanical action to apply your brakes. These brakes are critical to your safety on the road, so it’s importan

    Air Disc Brake for Trucks and Trailers

    In recent years the truck brake industry has seen a big shift from drum to air disc. This is largely due to requiring reduced stopping distances for trucks and trailers. In addition to improving braking performance, disc brakes have also improved TCO (total cost of ownership) by offering shorter pad

    The Use of Wedge Brake Chamber

    The wedge brake chamber is a type of air-operated drum brake that uses a push rod to push a wedge between two brake shoes, forcing them out against the inside of a drum. This type of drum brake is often used in heavy trucks, where it generat

    The Functions of Air Brake Actuator

    Air brake actuators play a vital, but often unsung, role in truck and trailer brake systems. Without them, the compressed air within an air reservoir could not be converted into a mechanical force that activates the brake.The brake actuator is responsible

    The working principle of Spring Brake Cylinder

    A spring brake cylinder is a type of brake chamber that applies the brakes by means of a large coil spring rather than air. This provides enough force to hold the brakes in the applied position, even when air pressure in the service brake system is lost.It

    What is an Air Brake Chamber?

    An air brake chamber is a component of an air brake system that converts compressed air pressure to mechanical force. The brake chamber contains a rubber diaphragm, which expands when air pressure is applied to it, and extends a push rod th

    The two main types of air brake chambers

    When a vehicle needs to brake, air enters the air brake chamber from the air inlet and a flexible rubber disc called a diaphragm deforms under air pressure, causing the push rod to move. This movement spreads the braking force over the brak

    How to Inspect the Disc Brake Chamber

    The disc brake chamber is an essential part of the air-brake system. It transfers compressed air from the master cylinder and drives the brakes to stop your wheels. The chamber has a pushrod, a diaphragm and a return spring.Brake ch

    Brief knowledge introduction Air Disc Brake Chamber

    When you press the brake pedal, compressed air fills an air brake chamber, causing a rubber disc called a diaphragm to move and push out a metal rod, known as a pushrod. When you release the brake pedal, the pressure is released and the pushrod returns to its original position.Read More
