description

The 332-7317 is one-piece camshaft for C18 engine. It drives roller lifters and fuel actuation components to synchronize valve and injection events. This high-power engine runs continuously under heavy thermal and cyclic shock load in mines and oilfields. Lobe pitting, spalling or journal scoring leads to power loss, unbalanced cylinder performance, high exhaust temperature and excessive fuel consumption. Severe damage triggers valve-to-piston contact. This camshaft is supplied without timing gear. Functional original gear can be reused. Its cam profile and lift are exclusive for C18 and not interchangeable with C15 camshafts.

Product Advantages

1. OEM dedicated timing profile for C18, well-matched valve and fuel injection sequence for stable heavy-load combustion
2. One-piece forging with high rigidity, heat resistant and fatigue resistant for long continuous operation
3. Uniform hardened layer reduces abrasive wear caused by contaminated lubricating oil
4. Sold separately without gear, reusable functional gear cuts overhaul expense

FAQ 

1. Does 332-7317 fit C15 engine?
No. C15 and C18 differ in cam lift, journal size and timing calibration, non-interchangeable.

2. Can the camshaft stay in service with minor scattered pitting and no cracks?
Pitting spreads rapidly under continuous heavy load of high-power engines, replacement is recommended.

3. What risk if I install new camshaft and reuse old lifters?
Mismatched contact surfaces accelerate lobe spalling during break-in and lead to early failure.

4. Can this camshaft swap with other C18 camshaft revisions?
Depends on emission and calibration. Different lift versions are not interchangeable.
