VL225 Old Generation Brake Shoe

Part Number: VL225 Old Generation Bulk Supply Ready Fleet Replacement Grade

The VL225 Old Generation Brake Shoe (OE 0270.829-5) is a field-proven friction component built for fleet procurement and volume replacement programs. With a 410mm by 225mm braking surface and 28 rivet holes, it provides balanced load distribution and predictable stopping performance for heavy-duty trailers and tractors. The standard-grade steel construction offers stable thermal behavior and long service intervals under mixed-load duty cycles. Supplied with consistent dimensional tolerances for fast workshop fitting, this shoe supports low total cost of ownership and reduced vehicle downtime for commercial operators.

  • Regional distribution fleets
  • Municipal and utility vehicles
  • Mixed-load duty cycles

Field Applications

The VL225 Old Generation is specified for heavy-duty trailer fleets, long-haul tractor units, and regional distribution vehicles operating under continuous load cycles. Its 28-hole pattern distributes clamping force evenly across the drum, reducing localized hot spots and lining wear. Workshop-friendly tolerances allow quick replacement with standard tooling, making it suitable for high-volume maintenance programs, municipal fleets, and mixed-load transport operators seeking consistent brake performance and predictable service costs.

Workshop Notes: Verify drum diameter and surface finish before fitting. Torque rivets to 35–40 N·m in a diagonal sequence. Advise 200–300 km of moderate braking for bedding. Schedule lining inspection every 12,000 km; replace below 8mm or at first sign of cracking or glazing.

Buyer Questions

Q: Can we order this shoe in volume for fleet programs?

Yes. The VL225 Old Generation is supplied for volume fleet orders with consistent dimensional tolerances and batch traceability, making it suitable for scheduled maintenance programs.

Q: Is it a direct interchange for OE 0270.829-5?

Yes. The 410mm by 225mm footprint and 28-hole pattern match OE 0270.829-5 for direct replacement on compatible axles.

Q: What is the expected service interval?

Under standard mixed-load duty cycles, inspect every 12,000 km. Replace when lining thickness falls below 8mm or if uneven wear, cracking, or glazing appears.

Q: Can this shoe be fitted with standard workshop tools?

Yes. Standard 10mm rivet tooling and a calibrated torque wrench are sufficient. No special fixtures are required for routine workshop installation.
