Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1027347 Electronic Exhaust Brake (5.0in) is a robust inline engine braking system designed to enhance vehicle control, braking power, and safety on steep descents for RAM 2500/3500 6.7L Cummins trucks from 2007.5–2012. By regulating back-pressure electronically through Variable Orifice Technology, this exhaust brake delivers reliable performance without the need for air compressors or air lines, reducing maintenance and failure points.
Designed to install inline into the 5.0-inch exhaust system, this electronic exhaust brake retains use of the OEM dash-mounted brake control and is constructed with cast iron to withstand repeated heat cycles. The unit improves braking efficiency (up to 150 retarding HP) for heavy towing or mountainous driving without the complexity of conventional air-actuated systems.
