Trailer Control Valve
Bendix

The trailer control valve serves as a primary hydraulic regulator for the trailer braking system, providing centralized control over brake pressure distribution to trailers under varying load and road conditions. The valve’s geometry mirrors other dash-mounted variants, with a 63.50 mm width, 25.60 mm height, and 61 mm length, enabling compatibility with common cab controls and instrument-panel installations. By interpreting braking commands from the tractor and translating them into proportional trailer brake pressure, it achieves coordinated deceleration and prevents trailer sway or snagging during high-demand maneuvers. VMRS code 013-010-014 places this unit in the same valve family as other dash-mounted trailer devices, supporting consistent maintenance practices and interchangeability across fleets. The lack of cross references requires users to verify system compatibility against vehicle electrical and hydraulic schematics, including port orientation and thread size. Category context 41532 frames this valve as a key component in the trailer braking pathway, contributing to overall vehicle stability, braking confidence, and operator safety in heavy-haul and fleet operations.
