BD Diesel Exhaust Brake - Universal 3.0in

BD Diesel has been refining their exhaust brake technology for nearly 30 years, and this universal model for 3.0-inch exhaust systems is a testament to that experience. If you're looking to add significant retarding power to your diesel truck, especially for controlling speed on long downhill grades, an exhaust brake like this can make a huge difference in reducing wear on your service brakes and improving your control. This unit is designed to work throughout the engine's RPM range, not just at higher speeds, thanks to BD's exclusive Variable Orifice Technology.

The construction of this exhaust brake is built to withstand the harsh conditions found in the exhaust system. It features rugged, cast-iron housings and a stainless steel butterfly valve and rotating shaft to resist corrosion and high heat. Inside, you'll find BD's exclusive alumibronze bushing and piston ring seals, which are known for their durability in high-temperature environments. The butterfly valve is a solid, offset design, and the unit includes a pneumatic spring-loaded cylinder with adjustable pressure regulation. Most kits for newer pickup trucks also come with an air compressor to operate the brake.

This universal exhaust brake is a robust option for adding significant retarding horsepower, up to 150 HP, to your diesel vehicle. It comes with all the necessary mounting hardware, including stainless steel components for corrosion resistance. While this is a universal unit, it's designed to integrate with various Dodge, Ford, and Chevy diesel applications, as well as motor homes, by adapting to a 3.0-inch exhaust pipe. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific vehicle compatibility and setup details.
