Description
The Wilwood Residual Pressure Valve part number 260-13783 is designed to optimize brake system performance by maintaining a minimal residual pressure in both disc and drum brake lines. Constructed from durable billet aluminum and color-coded in blue for easy identification, this valve ensures consistent brake pedal feel and helps prevent excessive caliper piston retraction or wheel cylinder leakage. It features a 2 psi residual pressure setting suitable for disc brake applications, particularly when the master cylinder is mounted below the calipers, where gravity and vibration can cause fluid to drain back, leading to longer pedal travel. This valve prevents fluid from flowing back without causing brake drag, resulting in a more responsive braking experience. The included fittings are 1/8-27 NPT to 3/8-24 inverted flare female connections, compatible with most domestic 3/16-inch hard brake lines, simplifying installation and ensuring a secure fit. The residual pressure valve’s compact design makes it ideal for a variety of automotive brake systems, contributing to safer and more reliable braking performance. Whether used in high-vibration off-road environments or standard applications, the Wilwood residual pressure valve provides a critical function in maintaining brake line pressure and system integrity over time.
