An air brake is a type of braking system that uses compressed air to slow down or stop a vehicle, commonly used on trains, buses, and trucks. The system works by using air pressure to activate brake pads that press against the wheels, creating friction to reduce the vehicle's speed. Air brakes are reliable and powerful, making them ideal for heavy vehicles and long trains, as they can apply strong and consistent braking force. The system allows for more controlled stopping and is essential for safely managing large or heavy loads.
