Product Description
The Bendix 800396 TP-5 Tractor Protection Valve is a heavy-duty pneumatic control valve designed to protect a commercial tractor's compressed air supply when trailer air lines become disconnected, damaged, or experience excessive pressure loss. By isolating the trailer service circuit when necessary, this valve helps maintain air pressure within the tractor's braking system and supports safe, dependable operation.
Featuring an integrated trailer service quick-release function, the TP-5 combines multiple air control functions into a single assembly. Its combination of push-to-connect and threaded NPT fittings accommodates the specific air line connections found in compatible tractor-trailer braking systems.
The 800396 is designed for cab or chassis mounting and features a durable housing, protected exhaust port, and multiple control connections. It is an excellent replacement for a damaged, leaking, or malfunctioning tractor protection valve.
