Piston Pin
Application: EMD engine piston assemblies
Part of our Cylinder head and liner product line
The Piston Pin is identified by EMD Part No. 8269842. EMD parts references identify 8269842 as the piston pin, and specialist EMD parts references describe it as a straight piston pin. No reliable DLW cross-reference was established in the sources reviewed, so the DLW number remains unassigned. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
How This Part Works
The Piston Pin is the piston-pin component of the EMD engine piston assembly. It provides the specified pin connection between the piston and its associated connecting component.
Signs It's Time to Replace
- Pin surface wear: abnormal wear on the working surface should be assessed
- Scoring: grooves or scoring can affect the pin-to-mating-component interface
- Discoloration: abnormal surface discoloration should be investigated
- Bending or deformation: distortion can affect proper fit and operation
- Excessive clearance: abnormal clearance at the piston-pin connection should be investigated
Apex identifies the Piston Pin by EMD Part No. 8269842. The precise EMD reference and straight-pin description help customers distinguish this piston pin from the separate rocking piston pin, EMD 40078951.
