Wabco 8282519686 PA12 Fuel Line Pipe 15x1.5mm 100m Roll

Description

This is a 100-meter roll of Wabco PA12 fuel line pipe, designed for use in air brake systems. Specifically, it's used for transporting compressed air within the braking circuits of commercial vehicles. This pipe is manufactured to OE specification and adheres to DIN 74324 standards, ensuring reliable performance and compatibility. Constructed from PA11-PHL, this pipe provides excellent resistance to fuel, oil, and abrasion, contributing to a long service life and reduced maintenance. The dimensions of the roll are 168 x 704 x 726 mm, with a tube diameter of 15 x 1.5 mm and an inner diameter of 12.0 mm.

Key Features & Benefits

This pipe is really designed to carry compressed air, not fuel despite the name - it's a bit of a holdover from how things were labeled originally. It’s a nylon tube, specifically made from PA12 material, and it’s used in air brake systems, mostly in larger vehicles like trucks and buses, but sometimes in other pneumatic systems as well. It’s super flexible, which makes installation much easier than rigid metal lines. This particular roll is 15mm in diameter with a 1.5mm wall thickness, and you get a full 100 meters of it. Think of it like the veins in your body, but for air. The air compressor creates pressurized air, and this pipe delivers that air to all the components that need it – things like the air brakes themselves, the suspension system if it’s air – assisted, and sometimes even the horn. It connects the compressor to the reservoirs, the reservoirs to the actuators, and so on. It’s a complete system, and this pipe is a critical part of that system.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, air brakes are obviously important for stopping a vehicle, especially a large one. If this pipe cracks, gets kinked, or leaks, you lose air pressure, and that seriously compromises your braking ability. It acts like a shield, protecting the whole system from leaks and ensuring everything gets the air pressure it needs, when it needs it. You’ll notice if there’s a problem – reduced braking performance is the biggest sign, and you might hear a hissing sound if there’s a major leak. Replacing sections of damaged pipe is essential for safety, and this 100m roll gives you plenty to work with for multiple repairs or a full system overhaul.
