Exhaust Valve Adjusting Screw Assembly, Unitized
Detroit Diesel

This exhaust valve adjusting screw assembly is vital for maintaining the precise clearance between the valve and its rocker arm, directly impacting engine performance and efficiency. Constructed from high-strength chromium steel, the screw offers excellent wear resistance and stability under high-temperature conditions. The 10.45 mm head height ensures sufficient contact surface for adjustments, while the 3/8-24 UNF threading provides a secure fit into the valve assembly. Its 27 mm thread length allows for fine-tuning valve lash, crucial for proper combustion and exhaust flow. Proper adjustment of this screw prevents valve train noise, reduces valve wear, and ensures smooth engine operation. Regular maintenance with high-quality adjustment screws like this can extend valve life and preserve engine power. This component can be sourced from Source One Parts Center, which guarantees high-quality standards and compatibility with your diesel engine’s specifications.
