Wabco 8282519146 PA12 Brake Line Pipe 12x1.5mm 50m Roll

Description

This is a 50-meter roll of PA12 brake line pipe, designed for use in air brake systems. It's commonly found in commercial vehicles and trailers where a reliable and durable air supply is critical. Manufactured by Wabco with MPN 8282519146, this pipe is constructed from PA11-PHL material, ensuring excellent resistance to pressure and temperature fluctuations. Its dimensions are 100 x 470 x 470 mm, with a tube diameter of 12 x 1.5 mm. This component meets OE specifications and operates according to DIN 74324 standards, guaranteeing compatibility and performance within the air brake system.

Key Features & Benefits

This pipe is specifically for air brake systems, mostly found on larger vehicles – think trucks, buses, trailers, that sort of thing. It's designed to reliably carry compressed air from the air compressor to all the various components that actually do the braking – the chambers on the wheels, the air dryer, everything. It's a tube, obviously, but it’s not just any tube. This PA12 material is really tough, really flexible, and importantly, it holds up well to the constant pressure changes and the stuff you find on the road – road salt, grime, temperature swings. Imagine it as the arteries of your air brake system. The compressor is the heart, pumping out the air pressure, and this pipe delivers that pressure where it needs to go. It connects everything together. It’s usually run alongside the vehicle’s frame, protected where possible, but it does get exposed to the elements. This 50 – meter roll is a good length because you’ll typically need enough to replace sections, or to do a complete overhaul, depending on the vehicle.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, brakes are pretty crucial, right? This pipe has to be reliable. If it cracks, gets pinholed, or becomes brittle, you lose air pressure. And losing air pressure in an air brake system means losing braking ability. It acts like a shield protecting the system from contamination and ensuring consistent performance. You’ll notice if there’s a problem, usually – a hissing sound, maybe a spongy brake pedal, or the air brake warning light coming on. It’s a safety item, absolutely. A lot of folks get parts like this from places like Fixparts Online, just to be sure they're getting something that meets spec. Replacing worn lines regularly is a really smart preventative measure.
