With almost three decades in the industry, we've leveraged extensive experience on challenging terrains, particularly hill and mountain roads, to consistently deliver optimal exhaust brake designs. Our expertise, honed over the years, integrates BD's exclusive Variable Orifice Technology, solid offset butterfly, spring-loaded cylinder, and precise pressure regulation, ensuring the delivery of up to 150 retarding horsepower across the engine's entire RPM range.
Unlike some designs that focus solely on high RPM using holes or extra components, our exhaust brake excels universally. Designed for Dodge, Ford, Chevy, and motor home applications, our robust cast-iron housings with exclusive features endure harsh exhaust conditions. Stainless steel components, including the butterfly valve and rotating shaft, resist corrosion, ensuring longevity. Most kits for newer pickup trucks also include an air compressor.
