{"product_id":"wilwood-residual-pressure-valve-new-style-2-lb-blue","title":"Wilwood Residual Pressure Valve - New Style - 2 lb \/ Blue","description":"Wilwood's two, four and ten pound residual pressure valves retain a minimum brake line pressure to help eliminate excessive pedal travel in both disc and drum brake systems. The two pound valve is used in disc brake applications where the master cylinder is mounted below the horizontal plane of the calipers and fluid drain back occurs from gravity and vibration, thereby causing excessive caliper piston retraction and a longer brake pedal stroke.  The minimal two pound residual pressure prevents fluid from flowing back without causing the brakes to drag.  Four pound valves can be beneficial in high vibration brake sytems such as  off-road or dirt circle track racing. With drum brakes, a ten pound valve is used to compensate for return spring tension and maintain wheel cylinder sealing in the drums. Residual Pressure Valves are made from billet aluminum and color coded for easy identification.  Valves with fittings are supplied with two 1\/8-27 NPT to 3\/8-24 inverted flare female fittings that will fit most domestic 3\/16th hard brake lines.\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wilwood Residual Pressure Valve, part number 260-13706, is designed to improve brake system performance by maintaining a minimal pressure in the brake lines. This valve is essential for disc and drum brake systems where controlling fluid backflow enhances pedal feel and reduces excessive pedal travel. Constructed from durable billet aluminum, the valve features a blue color coding for easy identification and compatibility with various brake setups. It is particularly effective in disc brake applications where the master cylinder is positioned below the calipers, preventing fluid drainage caused by gravity and vibration. By maintaining a residual pressure of 2 pounds, this valve prevents caliper piston retraction without causing brake drag, ensuring reliable and responsive braking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMinimal residual pressure of 2 pounds to prevent fluid backflow in disc brake systems\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstructed from billet aluminum for durability and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eColor-coded blue for easy identification and part recognition\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncludes two 1\/8-27 NPT to 3\/8-24 inverted flare female fittings for compatibility with most domestic 3\/16-inch hard brake lines\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSuitable for applications where master cylinder is below calipers to prevent excessive pedal travel\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstyle\u003etable.productattributes, .productattributes td { border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; border-collapse: collapse; padding: 2px; text-align: left; }\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"productattributes\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbdoy\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAir Freight Prohibited: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNot Carb Approved: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eLtl Freight Required: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eProp 65: Unknown\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003ePart Type: automotive\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eEpa: N\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCarb Acknowledgement Required: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eRegular Stock: t\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eUnits Per Sku: 1\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbdoy\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Wilwood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53617961468177,"sku":"260-13706","price":24.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3830\/0689\/files\/2de09882300eb285a2e41d82e865d054.jpg?v=1780485883","url":"https:\/\/shoprenegade.com\/products\/wilwood-residual-pressure-valve-new-style-2-lb-blue","provider":"Renegade Speed by Renegade Racing \u0026 Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
