Brake Cylinders

Overview   |   Features & Benefits

Air brake cylinders use compressed air to push a piston which is attached to the freight car brake rigging. The piston force is transferred through the brake rigging to apply brake shoe force onto the wheel.

Precision-made air brake cylinders meet AAR and customer requirements for locomotives (shown above) and freight cars.
