description

This camshaft is exclusive for the right cylinder bank of Caterpillar C32 V-engine. It is not interchangeable with C27 camshafts. Cam lobes actuate tappets and rocker assemblies to precisely control valve lift and timing window, matching C32 electronic fuel system for stable combustion under heavy load. C32 uses separate left and right bank camshafts with unique timing profiles, they cannot be swapped.

It is forged carbon steel with high-frequency hardened cam surfaces for excellent fatigue and pitting resistance under continuous mining shock loads. Internal through oil gallery connects to main oil passage to feed journals and cam lobes continuously, reducing scoring and spalling risk at high temperature.

It fits Caterpillar C32 engine, widely used on 797F mining trucks, D11T/D11R bulldozers, large stationary generator sets and mining power packs. Timing gear is sold separately, verify engine serial number before ordering.

4. Strict runout and coaxiality inspection before delivery, easy calibration and low timing drift after installation

FAQ 

Q: What faults are caused by pitting and spalling on cam lobes?
A: Insufficient valve lift, poor gas exchange, power loss on right bank, rough idle and valve train noise, engine derate in severe cases.

Q: Can 420-9998 replace the left bank camshaft of C32?
A: No. C32 left bank camshaft has different timing and lift profile, interchange will cause valve timing failure and risk of valve-piston contact.

Q: What happens if oil passage is blocked?
A: Cam journals and lobes lose lubrication and score rapidly, leading to premature camshaft failure and stuck tappets.

Q: What risk if only replacing camshaft without changing bearings?
A: Worn out-of-round bearings create abnormal clearance and score the new camshaft journals quickly.
