DESCRIPTION
The Cylinder Head, also known as the head or engine head, is a key component of the internal combustion engine. It sits on top of the cylinder block and seals the combustion chamber. The Cylinder Head is responsible for housing various components including valves, springs, and guides that control air and fuel flow into the engine while simultaneously allowing exhaust gases to escape. In addition to providing a mounting surface for these components, it also ensures proper compression ratios within each cylinder by providing space for the piston to move up and down during operation. The Cylinder Head is typically made from high-strength materials such as aluminum or cast iron to withstand high temperatures and pressures generated by combustion. Part number 5558171 refers to a specific model of Cylinder Head designed for use in certain truck engines.
