The BD Diesel Brake model number 1027345 is a high-performance exhaust brake designed for heavy-duty diesel trucks, specifically fitting 2007 to 2017 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models with 6.7L engines. This remote-mount exhaust brake features a 5-inch exhaust size, making it suitable for aftermarket applications where turbo-mounted exhaust brakes are not feasible. Incorporating BD’s exclusive Variable Orifice Technology, this exhaust brake provides up to 150 retarding horsepower across the engine’s RPM range, ensuring reliable engine braking during highway descents or heavy towing conditions. The rugged cast-iron housing is built to withstand the high temperatures and harsh environments typical of diesel exhaust systems, while the stainless steel butterfly shaft and solid, offset butterfly valve offer corrosion resistance and durability. The inclusion of an air compressor, along with all necessary mounting hardware such as clamps and air tubing, simplifies installation and ensures consistent operation. Constructed with BD’s alumibronze bushing and piston ring-seals, this exhaust brake delivers precise pressure regulation and long-term service life, making it a trusted choice among professional fleet operators and diesel enthusiasts alike. Its robust design, combined with proven thermal performance, helps maintain vehicle control and reduces brake wear, especially under severe towing and mountain driving conditions. The BD Diesel Brake is engineered to meet demanding operational standards, providing effective engine braking with minimal maintenance requirements. This model is ideal for fleet and heavy-duty applications where reliable, high-capacity exhaust braking is essential for safety and operational efficiency.
