Air brake valves are part of air brake systems found in heavy-duty and commercial vehicles. They are responsible for controlling and regulating the flow of compressed air to the vehicle’s brakes. Air brake valves are required because they offer several advantages over traditional hydraulic braking systems. Firstly, compressed air can apply greater force to the brakes than hydraulic fluids, which allows for more efficient and reliable braking performance. Secondly, air brake systems are less likely to overheat or fail than hydraulic systems, which can be especially important for heavy-duty vehicles operating on long, steep hills.
