- Balance Valve
-
- When a car slows
- down, more weight
- is put on the front
- wheels than on the
- rear wheels. The
- amount of pressure
- applied to the
- brakes must
- therefore be less
- in rear, to prevent
- the rear tires from
- locking up. This
- is done by the
- balance valve which
- ensures that higher
- pressure is always
- applied to the
- front brakes.
