Wilwood Brakes 2 lb Compact Residual Pressure Valve

Optimize your disc brake system's performance and feel with the Wilwood Brakes 2 lb Compact Residual Pressure Valve. This essential component is designed to maintain a slight amount of hydraulic pressure in the brake lines after the pedal is released. This residual pressure helps to keep brake pads seated against the rotor, reducing pad travel and ensuring a quicker, more responsive pedal feel.

Features and Benefits:

• Pressure Rating: 2 lb setting, ideal for most disc brake applications to prevent fluid drain-back while ensuring proper caliper operation.
• Port Size: Features 1/8 in NPT inlet and outlet ports for standard brake line connections.
• Construction: Machined from durable aluminum with a vibrant blue anodized finish for corrosion resistance and a clean look.
• Design: Compact size allows for easy installation in tight spaces.
• Application: Specifically designed for use in disc brake systems.
• Function: Prevents residual fluid pressure loss, ensuring consistent brake performance.

A residual pressure valve is crucial for systems using disc brakes, especially those with wheel cylinders or calipers mounted below the master cylinder. By maintaining a low level of pressure, it eliminates excessive pedal travel and ensures the brakes engage promptly. This valve is a small but significant upgrade for any performance-oriented braking system.
