description

This 541-8216 camshaft gear assembly is fitted on front end of camshaft. It meshes with crankshaft gear to transfer rotation power and synchronize valve timing with piston movement. Forged from alloy steel with carburized hardened teeth, high precision and fatigue resistance. It fits CAT heavy-duty diesel engine, can be assembled together with 522-2807 woodruff key and 522-2827 thrust plate. Designed for long heavy-load mining equipment operation, a replacement assembly for timing overhaul.

Part No.：541-8216
Name：CAT camshaft gear assembly
Type：Timing drive gear assembly

Advantages

1. OEM tooth profile, smooth meshing, low noise and stable timing phase
2. Uniform carburized layer, teeth resist pitting and chipping under cyclic load
3. Precise keyway tolerance, reliable positioning with woodruff key, prevent slipping and jumping
4. Complete assembly, replace together with camshaft and thrust components to reduce timing failure risk after overhaul

FAQ 

Q1：Can 541-8216 gear assembly match camshaft from other engine models?
A：No. Tooth quantity, module and keyway are model-specific, not interchangeable.
Q2：Can gear with light pitting on teeth be installed?
A：Minor pitting can be monitored temporarily. Replace immediately if pitting expands, crack or spalling occurs.
Q3：What risk if we replace gear without changing woodruff key?
A：Old woodruff key is fatigued and easy to shear, causing timing jump and bent valves.
Q4：What causes periodic knocking noise when cranking after installation?
A：Misaligned timing marks, abnormal gear backlash, worn thrust plate or improperly fitted key.
