ZF Retarder Suction Filter 0501215163 Hydraulic Retarder Oil Filter for ZF 16S Series Gearbox

The ZF ZF Retarder Suction Filter (part number 0501215163) is a replacement component for the air brake and air suspension systems of heavy-duty trucks, buses and semi-trailers. It is built to original equipment specification from quality materials, so it installs on the original mounting points and performs reliably throughout the service life of the vehicle. Key ratings include original equipment ratings.

The filter traps metal particles and impurities in the retarder hydraulic oil, protecting the internal valve body and seals from wear. Clean oil flow keeps the retarder working at full strength and avoids costly oil-circuit blockage.

Every unit is manufactured to original equipment specification and inspected before it leaves the factory, so it matches the fit, function and durability of the original part. Sealed, vibration-tested construction keeps performance stable in the heat, dust, road salt and constant vibration found on commercial vehicles, and standard interfaces make installation and maintenance straightforward. Spare parts, technical data and fitting advice are available on request.
