MAN TGA/TGX Pneumatic Distributor Valve 81981830000 81.98183-0000 Air Brake

Description:
This listing is for a used genuine MAN pneumatic distributor / metering valve for the compressed air and brake system. The part is clearly stamped MAN with OE number 8198183-0000 (format 81.98183-0000), which cross‑references directly to MAN part number 81981830000. According to MAN truck parts catalogues and specialist suppliers, this valve is used as an air brake distributor / splitter on MAN TGA, TGS, TGX, TGL and TGM models in Euro 5 and early Euro 6 specification, where it controls and distributes compressed air between circuits in the braking or chassis air system.

The assembly comprises a reinforced PA66 plastic valve block with multiple threaded ports, an integrated solenoid section with 24V electrical connector, and several attached hoses and fittings as shown in the photos. It is designed to be chassis‑mounted within the compressed air system and works in conjunction with other brake components such as relay valves and air tanks.

This particular unit was removed from a complete, running MAN truck and was function‑tested on the vehicle prior to dismantling; no air leaks or operating faults were noted at that time. After removal, the part has undergone a visual inspection. There is cosmetic wear, surface corrosion on metal fittings and general dirt consistent with normal service life on a commercial vehicle, but no visible cracks, broken ports or damaged connectors. All mounting points and hose connections appear intact. The item is sold as a used but serviceable component and has not been overhauled or pressure‑bench tested after removal.

Compatibility should include MAN TGA, TGS and TGX tractors and rigids as well as TGL and TGM chassis with Euro 5 and early Euro 6 engines where this exact part number is specified. However, buyers must always confirm fitment by matching the OE number 81981830000 / 81.98183-0000 and comparing with the existing valve on their vehicle or consulting a MAN dealer with the vehicle VIN.

Professional installation is strongly recommended. The valve is part of the safety‑critical braking and compressed air system and may require correct routing of air lines, system bleeding and leak checks after fitting. No coding or electronic programming is normally required beyond clearing any stored fault codes, but the workshop should follow MAN service procedures.

All our parts are genuine commercial vehicle components removed from tested trucks. Each item is visually inspected and, where possible, checked on the vehicle before dismantling to ensure it is in working order. This used MAN pneumatic distributor valve offers an economical alternative to an expensive new OE unit while maintaining original quality.
