Take The Stress Out Of Heavy Hauls

Anyone who has hauled a big load down a steep grade knows that factory brakes alone can leave you wishing for more stopping power. The BD Diesel 1028030 Exhaust Brake is designed to give you exactly that, with up to 150 retarding horsepower to help keep your speed in check. By using exhaust back pressure to slow the vehicle, it reduces the strain on your service brakes and keeps them from overheating or wearing out too quickly. The result is more control and a safer driving experience, especially when towing in the mountains or handling long downhill runs. This unit is a universal fit for 3-inch exhaust systems and comes complete with all the hardware you need for installation. It is a proven way to extend the life of your braking system while adding confidence behind the wheel. Whether you are towing for work or hauling for play, this exhaust brake gives your truck the extra muscle it needs to handle the load.

Built With Proven Technology For Reliable Braking Power

The BD Diesel 1028030 Exhaust Brake uses advanced engineering to deliver consistent performance under extreme conditions. Its exclusive Variable Orifice Technology ensures smooth braking across the entire RPM range, while the pneumatic spring-loaded cylinder and offset butterfly design work together to maintain reliable exhaust restriction. The housing is constructed from rugged cast iron to withstand high heat, and components like the stainless steel butterfly shaft and aluminum bronze bushing add long-lasting durability. Piston ring seals help prevent leaks, ensuring the brake maintains efficiency and control mile after mile. Every kit includes the necessary mounting hardware, making it straightforward to install on a compatible 3-inch exhaust system. This brake is also legal for use in all 50 states, requiring no special exemptions or certifications. For trucks running aftermarket non-VGT turbos, it provides a dependable solution for gaining the braking performance that stock systems simply cannot deliver.
