Description

This is a 25-meter roll of Wabco PA12 brake line pipe, designed for use in air brake systems. It's a critical component ensuring reliable and safe air delivery throughout the braking network of commercial vehicles. This PA12 brake line features a 16x2.25mm tube diameter and is manufactured to OE specification, providing a perfect fit and dependable performance. The pipe’s dimensions are 88 x 600 x 600 mm. It is made of PA11-PHL material and adheres to DIN 74324 standards, contributing to its durability and consistent operation under pressure.

Key Features & Benefits

This pipe is specifically for air brake systems, primarily in trucks and trailers. It carries compressed air, which is what actually does the braking. It’s made of PA12, which is a type of nylon – really tough stuff designed to handle the high pressures involved in stopping a large vehicle. The 16x2.25mm refers to the outer diameter and wall thickness, basically how big and strong the pipe itself is. You’re getting a 25 – meter roll, so plenty to work with for a full job or to have on hand. Think of it as a major artery in the braking system. The air compressor builds up pressure, and this pipe is the route that pressure takes to get to the brake chambers at each wheel. Without a good, secure line, the air can’t reach where it needs to go, and you lose braking power. It connects the compressor, the air dryer, the relay valves, and ultimately to the brakes themselves.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

This isn't a part you want to skimp on. Air brake lines are under constant pressure and get a lot of wear and tear from road grime, heat, and just the vibration of the vehicle. PA12 is really resistant to cracking and deterioration, unlike some older rubber hoses. It acts like a shield against those problems. You’ll notice if a line does fail – you'll likely have a sudden loss of braking power on one or more wheels, and sometimes a noticeable air leak. It's a safety critical item, really. We carry a lot of air brake components, and you can find this PA12 pipe at places like Fixparts Online if you're looking for a reliable source. It's good to replace lines as preventative maintenance, especially on older vehicles, rather than waiting for something to go wrong.
