Brake Chambers
Where to Buy
Before a TRP Brake Chamber can be installed on your truck, it must pass a rigorous inspection to ensure it will form a tight seal for better performance and longer life. Regardless of the conditions, you can trust TRP Brake Chambers to handle the load.
| Feature | Advantage | What it does for you |
|---|---|---|
| Epoxy-coated power spring | Made of chrome/silicone pre-tempered wire which is shot peened for low fatigue | Helps ensure a long-lasting spring that is highly resistant to corrosion |
| Chrome-plated internal push rod | The push rod is highly polished so that it moves easily through the O-rings | This helps prevent O-ring wear and internal leaks |
| Heavy-duty, synthetic rubber diaphragms | Diaphragms are tough and highly resistant to abrasion | When the diaphragms fail, the brake chamber can no longer function |
| Stroke indicator | The push rod has an indicator to help determine when the stroke is too great, indicating the brakes need adjusting or replacement | Efficient, accurate and easy method for determining when adjustment or brake shoe replacement is necessary |
| Reinforced mounting studs | 10-gauge housing provides exceptional strength | Mounting studs on lesser gauge housings often pull through the housing, leading to erratic braking |
| Crimp seal on the pressure plate | Guards against tampering | It can be very dangerous if the power spring is accidentally released |
| Patent-pending flexible center seal bushings | Allows some lateral movement of the internal push rod, caused by the lateral loads of the main spring | Reduces wear on the internal push rod and minimizes the effect of the lateral main spring loads, which extends life |
