Description
The Wilwood Residual Pressure Valve (Part Number 260-13706) is designed to optimize brake system performance by maintaining a minimal pressure in the brake lines. This 2 psi valve is ideal for disc brake applications where the master cylinder is mounted below the calipers, preventing excessive caliper piston retraction caused by gravity and vibration. By retaining a slight pressure, it ensures a firm pedal feel and reduces the risk of excessive pedal travel without causing brakes to drag. Constructed from billet aluminum, the valve is lightweight and durable, with a color-coded blue finish for easy identification. It includes fittings with two 1/8-27 NPT to 3/8-24 inverted flare female adapters, compatible with most domestic 3/16-inch hard brake lines, simplifying installation and maintenance. This residual pressure valve is suitable for both street and racing applications, providing consistent brake performance across various conditions. The compact design allows for flexible installation in tight spaces often encountered in custom or performance vehicles. Proper use of this valve can help improve braking response, reduce pedal travel, and enhance overall safety during aggressive driving or off-road adventures. Whether upgrading an existing brake system or building a new one, this Wilwood residual pressure valve offers reliable performance and easy integration into your automotive setup.
