EM34550

TRACTOR PROTECTION VALVE 288605

The EM34550 is a PAI tractor protection valve, a TP-5 type air brake component used on heavy-duty trucks. It controls the flow of air to the trailer brakes, transmits brake signals from the tractor to the trailer, and protects the tractor's air supply in the event of a trailer breakaway or sudden separation of the connecting lines. This valve is commonly replaced when it develops air leaks, fails to hold pressure, or causes the trailer brakes to not apply or release properly. It is compatible with multiple truck makes and is a direct replacement for Mack 745-288605 and other OEM numbers.
