The camshaft housing for overhead cam configurations is engineered to contain and protect the camshaft, which is central to the valve timing mechanism. Its design ensures proper alignment of the camshaft with other engine components, facilitating smooth rotation and precise valve actuation. Made from durable materials, it withstands the mechanical stresses and thermal cycles typical in heavy-duty engines. The housing also helps contain lubrication, ensuring consistent camshaft operation and reducing wear. Proper installation of this component is essential for maintaining accurate timing, which impacts engine power, emissions, and fuel economy. Its compatibility with all versions of Wabco systems adds to its versatility.
