Description
Bendix 107516N is a Genuine Bendix OEM cylinder-head field maintenance kit for Tu-Flo 550 and Tu-Flo 750 air compressors used on heavy-duty truck air-brake systems. The kit rebuilds the compressor head: it includes the inlet and discharge valves, valve seats, springs, unloader pistons, head gasket, governor-mount gasket, and supporting o-rings — everything required to restore compressor breathing without removing the compressor block from the engine.

Applications
This maintenance kit fits the following Bendix air compressors:
- Bendix Tu-Flo 550 (single-cylinder, ~13.2 CFM at 1,250 rpm)
- Bendix Tu-Flo 750 (twin-cylinder, ~16.5 CFM at 1,250 rpm)
Tu-Flo 550 / 750 compressors are used across virtually every heavy-duty Class 6–8 chassis: Freightliner, Mack, Volvo, Kenworth, Peterbilt, International — on Cummins, Detroit, Caterpillar, Mack, and Navistar engines.
Verify your compressor model (Tu-Flo 550 vs 750) is stamped on the head before ordering — older Tu-Flo 400 / 500 / 700 and newer BA-921 / BA-922 compressors use different repair kits.
