Description

This Wabco part, with MPN 1345130008, safeguards critical valve components from contaminants, ensuring reliable braking performance.

It provides enhanced durability and helps maintain the integrity of the air brake system, contributing to overall vehicle safety and reduced maintenance needs.

Key Features & Benefits

These little guys are pretty simple, actually. They’re basically rubber or plastic caps that fit over the air valves on your brake system. Their job is to keep dirt, dust, water, and other debris out of the valve itself. They don’t do anything mechanically with the braking, they just protect the parts that do. Think of your air valves as the brains of your air brake system – they control the air flow that actually stops the vehicle. These covers sit right over those valves, protecting them from the elements. They’re most often found on trailer and heavy – duty truck air brake systems, but can be on other vehicles too. They’re part of the whole air brake setup, so they’re not exactly standalone; they rely on the whole system working properly.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

They might seem small, but they’re surprisingly important. Those air valves are precision parts, and even a little bit of grit getting inside can cause wear and tear, leaks, or malfunctions. A malfunctioning air brake valve is a big deal, obviously. The dust cover acts like a shield, preventing that from happening. You’ll notice if one’s missing pretty quickly, because everything gets covered in grime. They’re a cheap part to replace, and it’s a lot easier than replacing an entire valve or dealing with brake failure. We carry a good selection here, and you can also find them on places like Fixparts Online, but we can usually get you set up right away. Replacing them as part of regular maintenance is a smart move.
