Brake drums are an integral part of the air braking system, constructed from durable materials that can withstand the extreme heat and pressure generated during braking. These heavy-duty brake drums are designed to ensure safe and reliable braking in demanding conditions, making them an essential component for the overall performance of semi trucks.

Part of the air brake system, the brake drums of the compressed air system rely on compressed air to slow or stop the vehicle. The brake drum is shaped like a cylinder and is pressed by the brake pads when triggered by the air brake system. First developed on the railroad and now used by commercial vehicles worldwide, air brake drums are depended on for their reliability in the field. If you’re in the market for a new air brake drum, we’ve got you covered.
