Wabco 8282521156 Fuel Line Tube 12x1.5 500M

Description

This Wabco 8282521156 fuel line tube is a crucial component within air brake systems, specifically designed for air pipes and lines. It's commonly used in heavy-duty vehicles and trailers to reliably transport compressed air to the braking system. This PA11-HIPHL tube boasts a 12.0 x 1.5 mm diameter and is available in a 500-meter roll, offering extended reach for various applications. The tube is designed to withstand a maximum operating pressure of 19.0 bar and operate within a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, ensuring consistent performance in demanding conditions. Its robust construction and OE specification deliver enhanced durability and reliability for critical air brake system functionality.

Key Features & Benefits

This tube’s job is pretty simple – it carries pressurized air throughout your air brake system. It’s a conduit, a pathway for that air to get from the compressor to all the components that actually do the braking – things like the air tanks, valves, and ultimately, the brake chambers at the wheels. It’s designed to handle a good amount of pressure without leaking or failing. Think of it as the arteries of your braking system. Just like your body, the air needs to circulate to function. This tubing is the network that makes that happen. It connects everything together. You’ll find it running all over the place, often under the vehicle, connecting the compressor, reservoirs, and all the actuators. It’s not just fuel lines, even though it’s in the name; it’s really about moving air for the brakes.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

This is critical for safety, plain and simple. If this tubing cracks, gets a leak, or becomes brittle, you lose air pressure, and you lose braking power. It acts like a shield protecting the pressurized air needed to stop the vehicle. You’ll notice if you have a problem with this stuff – you’ll likely hear a hissing sound, and your gauges will start to drop. A failing line can quickly lead to complete brake failure, so keeping these lines in good shape is a top priority. We carry a lot of different sizes and lengths, and you can sometimes find this 12x1.5 roll at places like Fixparts Online, but it’s best to replace it all at once if you're doing a full system overhaul, just to be safe.
