Machine model and part number are what let us confirm fitment in writing. Message is optional.
Overview
Fitment Note: Confirmed by the removed spring number and the engine reference. Usually one spring per valve - tell us your engine and we confirm the quantity; normally renewed as a set with collets and retainers.
Aftermarket valve mechanism spring (valve spring) 5I-7740A — a direct replacement for the Caterpillar 5I-7740 spring. It fits the Caterpillar 3066 / S6K / C6.4 diesel engine family (also 3064 / C4.2), commonly used on CAT 311 / 311B / 311C / 312B / 320 / 320B / 320C / 320D excavators.
The valve spring holds the valve against its seat and returns it after the rocker opens it. When a spring weakens, breaks or loses free length, the valve does not close fully — typical signs are a misfire, loss of compression, a rattling valve train and, in severe cases, a dropped valve. Springs are normally renewed as a set during a cylinder-head overhaul.
Coil (compression) spring, hardened valve spring wire. Confirm the removed spring number and the engine reference before ordering; tell us the engine and we confirm the quantity (usually one spring per valve).
