Alliance Parts announced an expanded line of air-conditioning compressors now available for all makes and models of Class 6-8 vehicles. These direct drop-in replacement parts were developed and tested to original equipment specifications for the heavy-duty truck market. Equipped with double end-capped PAC oil with special anti-wear additive, they’re produced by T/CCI, a heavy-duty U.S. compressor manufacturer.

“Air-conditioning compressors are fundamental to the operation of commercial vehicles in the summer months,” says Todd Hooper, director of parts and service marketing for Daimler Trucks North America. “With a lifespan of three to five years, air-conditioning compressors typically aren’t part of a set maintenance schedule. But efficient A/C is essential to driver comfort as the season heats up.”
