Brake Chamber
Bendix

Engineered for robust air brake installations in heavy trucks and trailers, this chamber assembly converts compressed air into precise linear motion to actuate the braking mechanism. The VMRS code 013-013-060 places it in Bendix's brake chamber family, aligning with standard mounting interfaces, port configurations, and stroke budgets used across a wide range of applications. The unit’s design tolerances support reliable performance in varying climates and load conditions, with straightforward bolt-on mounting to existing clevis and pushrod arrangements. Proper selection ensures pedal feel consistency, predictable brake response, and safe stopping distances even under cold-start conditions or high-traffic scenarios. Regular maintenance includes checking for air leaks, inspecting diaphragm and piston seals, and replacing gaskets to preserve efficient air-to-brake transfer. The component’s compatibility with both single-chamber and tandem-chamber systems makes it versatile for tractors, straight trucks, and heavy trailers used in regional, vocational, and long-haul service. Choosing the correct chamber size and port configuration is critical to avoiding brake lag and preserving balanced front-to-rear performance under load, particularly in fleets operating across diverse terrains and duty cycles.
