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
- Deformation: bending or distortion should be evaluated
- Surface damage: cracks or other physical damage should be assessed
- Excessive clearance: abnormal movement at the piston-pin connection should prompt inspection
Apex identifies the Piston Pin (Rocking) by EMD Part No. 40078951 and DLW Part No. 16141441. This precise cross-reference helps customers distinguish the rocking piston pin from the straight piston pin EMD 8269842.
