Clevite has announced the release of new pistons and gaskets to support
the complete engine kit program for the 3406E Caterpillar engine.
MAHLE Clevite has expanded the coverage for the 3406E, which includes
four new forged steel crowns and two skirts to accompany these crowns.
The patented MAHLE Ferrotherm piston design, which uses forged steel
crowns and a separate aluminum skirt, is employed in these new pistons.
The design serves to increase the piston crown durability resulting in
a longer engine life. Clevite pistons from MAHLE are the only forged
steel crown available in the aftermarket for this application,
according to the company.
Clevite heavy duty engine parts have been packaged to specifically meet
the needs of the engine rebuilder; they can be sourced in complete
cylinder kits, separate piston crowns, pistons with skirt and pin or
individual skirts.
In support of the extensive MAHLE Clevite engine kit program, 30 new
gasket sets have been added; including head sets, lower sets, front and
rear structures and injector o-ring kits. The addition of these gaskets
increases the coverage for this model of engine. New engine kits can be
viewed at www.heavydutyenginekits.com. These new kits can be found by
using the new serial number and arrangement number search features.
MAHLE's “Great Parts for Great Engines” brochure (MC-4-209A) is available in PDF format at www.mahleclevite.com. This brochure includes specific part numbers and OE reference information.
