Key Features & Benefits

This thing basically holds the air valve in the correct position while you’re doing maintenance or repairs. It’s designed to mimic how the valve sits inside the housing, so you can work on it accurately. It allows you to properly align things for testing, adjusting, or replacing components. It’s got these precise curves that match up with different valve styles. Think of your air brake system as needing everything perfectly aligned to work safely. The air valves control the flow of air to the brakes, and even a slight misalignment can cause problems. The Curve Jig ensures those valves are held steady during service, allowing for a proper repair. It's especially helpful when you're rebuilding or calibrating the valves themselves. It's not in the vehicle normally, it's a tool for the technician.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Honestly, without something like this, you’re kind of shooting in the dark. You might think things are lined up right, but it's tough to be sure. If those valves aren't seating properly, you can get air leaks, reduced braking power, or even complete brake failure. That’s obviously a big safety issue. Using this jig gets you a reliable, accurate repair, preventing headaches down the road. It really helps avoid guesswork and ensures a job is done right. You can find these pretty easily, Fixparts Online has a good selection, and using the right tool makes all the difference. You’ll notice if a valve isn’t properly seated when you test it, but this helps make sure you get it right the first time.
