Product Introduction: Cylinder Heads 2425327 and 2952047 for Caterpillar 3508, 3512, and 3516 Diesel Engines
Overview
The Cylinder Heads 2425327 and 2952047 are precision-engineered components designed for the Caterpillar 3508, 3512, and 3516 diesel engines, critical for sealing the combustion chamber, housing the valves, and facilitating efficient airflow and fuel combustion. These parts are essential for maintaining engine performance and reliability in heavy-duty applications, such as generator sets, industrial equipment, and petroleum systems. Available as new aftermarket, remanufactured, or genuine OEM parts, they provide robust solutions for engine maintenance.
Key Features
- Material: Constructed from high-grade cast iron, designed to withstand extreme temperatures, pressures, and mechanical stresses in the 3508, 3512, and 3516 engines. Features precision-machined surfaces for optimal sealing, heat dissipation, and durability.
- Design: Engineered to OEM specifications for precise fitment and performance. Includes valve seats, guides, and ports optimized for efficient combustion and exhaust flow. Available as bare heads or loaded assemblies with pre-installed valves, springs, premium valve stem seals, retainers, injector cups, and cam bearings. Features advanced cooling passages to manage engine temperature effectively.
- Compatibility: Compatible with Caterpillar 3508, 3512, and 3516 diesel and gas engines, used in:
- Generator Sets: 3508, 3512, 3516, PM3508, PM3512, PM3516, G3508, G3512, G3516.
- Industrial Equipment: 3508, 3508C, 3512, 3516, 3516C, used in mining, construction, and marine applications.
- Petroleum Products: 3508, CX48-P2300, CX38-P892, CX38-P800, 3512, 3516.
- Engines: 3508 (V8, 34.5L), 3512 (V12, 51.8L), 3516 (V16, 69.0L), with specific serial numbers (e.g., 23Z, 5PS for 3508; 49Y, 65Z for 3512; 27Z, 71Z for 3516). Exact compatibility must be verified using the engine’s serial number via CAT SIS, as per Caterpillar’s policy.
- Cross-References:
- 2425327: 242-5327, 1720834, 1720839, 1541612, 1612508, 2425328, 3356218, 4W9560.
- 2952047: Limited cross-reference data available; likely specific to certain 3500 series configurations, possibly interchangeable with 2425327 or related parts like 3356220, 2014257. Verification required via CAT SIS.
- Dimensions: Specific dimensions are not publicly detailed but conform to OEM standards for 3500 series engines. Typical bare cylinder heads for these engines weigh approximately 200-250 lbs (91-113 kg) each, with loaded assemblies heavier due to pre-installed components.
- Quality Assurance: Manufactured or remanufactured in ISO 9001 or TS16949-certified facilities, meeting or exceeding Caterpillar OEM specifications. Subject to rigorous inspection, including pressure and vacuum testing, magnaflux testing, and surface grinding for flatness.
Benefits
- Enhanced Durability: High-grade cast iron construction ensures resistance to thermal stress, warping, and wear, extending service life in demanding power generation, industrial, and petroleum applications.
- Reliable Performance: Optimizes combustion efficiency, airflow, and valve operation, maintaining the 3508 (up to 1000 hp), 3512 (up to 1500 hp), and 3516 (up to 2000 hp) engines’ power output and fuel economy, critical for continuous-duty operations.
- Cost-Effective: Offers high-quality aftermarket or remanufactured options, reducing maintenance costs compared to replacing entire engine assemblies. No core charge typically required for new parts; remanufactured parts may involve a core deposit.
- Ease of Installation: Engineered as direct-fit replacements, with loaded assemblies including pre-installed components to simplify installation, minimizing downtime. Professional installation by ASE-certified technicians is recommended due to precise torque requirements.
