Wabco 4527110670 Coiled Tube

Description

The Wabco 4527110670 Coiled Tube is a critical component within air brake systems, specifically designed for air pipes and lines. It's engineered to safely and reliably transmit compressed air throughout the braking network of commercial vehicles. This coiled tube is constructed from TCP-ET, ensuring durability and compatibility with the demanding environment of brake systems. Measuring 131 x 121 x 551 mm, this device features a 12.0 x 1.5 mm diameter and is equipped with fittings for easy integration. Its robust design and OE specification guarantee consistent performance and a reliable connection, contributing to the overall safety and efficiency of the braking system. The operating temperature range is -40°C to +70°C, and it can handle a maximum operating pressure of 10.0 bar.

Key Features & Benefits

These tubes basically deliver compressed air throughout your braking system. They’re flexible, so they can handle the movement of the vehicle without cracking or breaking, unlike rigid metal lines. They connect things like the air compressor to the reservoirs, and from there to the brake chambers on each wheel. They handle the air that actually applies your brakes, so it’s pretty critical stuff. Think of it as the veins and arteries of your air brake system. Rigid lines get you from point A to point B generally, but anywhere you need some give, that’s where these coiled tubes come in. They’re used in spots where things are moving relative to each other – axles, steering components, that sort of thing. They act like a shield against vibration and flexing, preventing leaks and failures in those areas. You'll find them connecting the suspension to the frame, or at the wheel ends, for instance.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If one of these tubes fails, you'll notice if you're lucky. You might hear an air leak – a hissing sound. More seriously, it can lead to reduced braking performance on one or more wheels. That's obviously a safety issue, and something you want to address immediately. A completely failed tube means that brake chamber isn’t getting the air it needs, and that wheel won’t stop effectively. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, and it’s always best to replace these when you find a problem rather than trying to patch them. A small leak can become a big one surprisingly quickly.
