BD Diesel 1028050 Universal Exhaust Brake 5.0 Inch Remote Mount Air Actuated

The BD Diesel 1028050 is a universal remote mount exhaust brake designed for heavy-duty diesel applications. This 5.0-inch air-actuated system delivers up to 150 retarding horsepower throughout the engine's RPM range, providing exceptional braking performance on steep grades and mountain roads.

Variable Orifice Technology:

BD Diesel's exclusive Variable Orifice Technology features a solid, offset butterfly design with a spring-loaded pneumatic cylinder and adjustable pressure regulation. Unlike competing designs that only provide maximum braking at high RPM, this system maintains consistent retarding power across the entire RPM range.

Rugged Construction:

• Cast-iron housing engineered for high-heat exhaust environments
• Stainless steel butterfly valve and rotating shaft resist corrosion
• Exclusive alumibronze bushing for extended durability
• Piston ring-seals for reliable operation
• Stainless steel butterfly shaft proven under harsh conditions

Installation & Compatibility:

Estimated installation time is 4 hours. All mounting hardware is included. Brake controls connect to the throttle pedal via Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APPS). Vehicles without APPS require BD part number 1300420 micro switch and custom bracket fabrication. BD recommends using exhaust back pressure test gauge kit 1030050 for proper setup.
