BD Diesel 1028130 Universal Exhaust Brake Remote Mount Air Actuated with Compressor - 3.0

The BD Diesel 1028130 is a universal remote-mount exhaust brake system designed for diesel-powered trucks and motor homes. This air-actuated brake features a 3.0-inch inlet/outlet and includes an integrated air compressor for complete installation convenience.

Variable Orifice Technology

BD Diesel's exclusive Variable Orifice Technology delivers up to 150 retarding horsepower throughout the engine's entire RPM range, not just at high RPM like competitive designs. The system uses a solid offset butterfly valve with spring-loaded pneumatic cylinder and adjustable pressure regulation to provide consistent, reliable braking performance on steep grades and mountain roads.

Rugged Construction

Built to withstand extreme exhaust temperatures and harsh operating conditions, this exhaust brake features a cast-iron housing with BD's proprietary alumibronze bushings and piston ring seals. The butterfly valve and rotating shaft are constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel for maximum durability and long service life.
