Heavy duty truck parts are necessary to keep the shipping industry running by maintaining and repairing semis and tankers that cross the nation’s highways. These vehicles are essential to the flow of economy and it’s important to recognize that semis have different parts than most cars. Knowing the special needs of a truck will ensure jts overall success.

One of the most obvious heavy duty truck parts is the diesel engine. In regular car engines, air and fuel mix together before entering the combustion chamber, but diesel fuel ignites directly when injected into the highly-compressed air in the chamber. Diesel engines can get up to 40% more miles per gallon than a standard gasoline engine, but diesels tend to be much heavier.

The brakes are also some of the most important heavy duty truck parts. Rather than the hydraulic method used in commercial cars, semis use air pressure brakes. Air pressure brakes don’t require brake fluid reducing the risk of leakage or brake failure caused when brake fluid vaporizes in the hydraulic lines.
