Engine Piston Kit
Cummins®

The engine piston kit with part number 5633605 is a set of components that includes the piston, piston rings, wrist pins, and circlips. The piston is a cylindrical component that moves up and down inside the engine cylinder and generates power by compressing the fuel-air mixture or by converting the energy from burning fuel into rotational motion. The piston rings provide a seal between the piston and cylinder wall to prevent leaks of combustion gases and oil while also helping to transfer heat away from the piston. The wrist pins connect the pistons to the connecting rods, allowing them to move in unison with each other. Finally, circlips hold everything together by retaining the wrist pins in place within their bores. When replacing an engine piston kit, it’s important to select one that matches your vehicle’s make and model as well as its intended use, whether for daily driving or high-performance applications.
