RETARDER BRAKING SYSTEM Breaking the truck generates high amount of pressure,wear and heat on the brake disks and brake pads and in some cases,continuous braking during downhill or in traffic leads to the decrease of brake pressure,The truck needs to halted in safe place to recharge the compressor. The best solutions for these safty less conflicts is the RETARDER BRAKING SYSTEM. The reatarder brake system gives the smooth braking experience with no energy loss,wear,noise while slowing down the heavy loaded trucks.It saves the maintainance cost on replacing the brake disks,linings and brake pads. HOW RETARDER WORKS? Retarder is a hydraulic system that is integrated into the output end of a truck’s gearbox and uses high-pressure oil as a braking medium Via a gear transmission, the Retarder acts on the output shaft of the gearbox and thus directly on the propeller shaft. Once the Retarder is applied, it generates a braking force on the propeller shaft corresponding to up to ...
