Description:
An Engine Brake, also known as a compression brake or Jake brake, is a device used in engines to assist in slowing down or decelerating a machine. It works by utilizing the engine's compression stroke to generate braking force, reducing the reliance on the machine's mechanical or hydraulic braking systems.
Attributes:
• Designed to fit within the housing and move smoothly back and forth.
• Offers durability, heat resistance, and excellent mechanical properties.
• Can withstand high temperatures and pressures
Application:
The Piston in the Engine Brake is responsible for actuating the exhaust valves and controlling the release of compressed air during the braking process and is mainly used in Cat 3306, 3306B, 3306C, 3406, 3406B, 3406B, 3406C, and 3406C Engine (Piston), D35-HP, D350E, D400, D400D, D400E, and D40D Articulated Truck
