PRXB Exhaust Brakes |
| You’re
here because you have a need for more braking power. Whether your
motivation is fueled by safety or maintenance cost savings, you have
found the best alternate supplemental diesel exhaust braking system,
next to an engine brake, that guarantees optimum retarding performance
through the entire RPM range. Unlike a typical exhaust brake that
requires high RPMs to work properly, the patented PRXB (pressure regulated
exhaust brake) delivers constant exhaust backpressure (braking) as
early as 1200 RPM through to the maximum allowable RPM. No other diesel
exhaust brake can claim this! At
1/2 the price of an engine brake, and virtually maintenance free,
Pacbrake's PRXB exhaust brake will save you money. It is ideal for
in city driving but most importantly for steep descents. Take your
foot off the accelerator, and instantly feel the hold back without
touching your service brakes – feel in control! |

Pacbrake’s
PRXB Exhaust Brake has revolutionized the braking industry. Adapted
for a variety of diesel vehicle applications, the PRXB provides the
strongest braking horsepower, greatest speed reductions and shortest
stopping distances possible without the use of service brakes.
Diesel engines, unlike gasoline engines, don't slow down simply by
taking your foot off the accelerator; they rely on service and supplemental
brakes. An exhaust brake is a form of a supplemental brake, and they
work much differently than their conventional counterparts.
Controlled by a master ON/OFF switch, Pacbrake’s exhaust brakes
provide whisper quiet supplemental braking that allows service brakes
to be used much less, ultimately saving you money. They have the ability
to be left on all the time, making it ideal for in-city driving or
for steep, downhill grades. This product pays for itself as less wear
on the brake pads means fewer brake jobs. |

Introducing
the Pacbrake PRXB
Pacbrake’s flagship product, the PRXB (pressure
regulated exhaust brake), is the unquestioned leader in the supplemental
brake industry. The patented PRXB design delivers the strongest
braking horsepower, greatest speed reductions and shortest stopping
distances possible without the use of service brakes. It maintains
optimum retarding performance by maximizing the exhaust backpressure
throughout the entire RPM range. Unlike a typical exhaust brake,
which requires high RPMs to work properly, the PRXB delivers constant
exhaust pressure (braking) as early as 1200 RPM through to the maximum
allowable RPM.

| Why
is the PRXB™ different from other exhaust brakes? |
| Pacbrake's PRXB™
offers the best holdback power at lower RPM's GUARANTEED!
The patented PRXB is bER; 50% more efficient at
lower RPM's than any standard exhaust brake on the market. This
allows the driver to use their exhaust brake in the RPM range where
they typically drive most.
Pacbrake's exclusive Arcor Nitride coating helps prevent corrosion,
maintain lubricity and minimize brake maintenance making it TOUGHER
than the competitors.
The PRXB is SAFER because it is specifically designed within the
engine's capabilities, and equipped with a back pressure limiter
which regulates the exhaust back pressure to protect against engine
overpressure.
The patented 90º non-contacting butterfly valve is MORE RELIABLE
as it is engineered to eliminate sticking.
Manufactured under a certified quality system, the Pacbrake ensures
peace of mind and a safer ride.
