Gudgeon Pin - DD13 EPA07/EPA10/EURO 5/GHG17
Detroit Diesel

The Gudgeon pin is a critical connecting component that links the piston to the connecting rod, facilitating smooth transfer of forces during engine operation. Made from high-strength steel, it is engineered to withstand the extreme pressures and thermal cycles within the combustion chamber. Its precise dimensions, including length and diameters, ensure perfect fitment, reducing the risk of piston misalignment or failure. The steel construction provides excellent fatigue resistance, which is essential for the repetitive motion in heavy-duty engines. Proper installation and maintenance of the gudgeon pin are vital for preventing piston damage, ensuring optimal compression, and maintaining engine performance. Source One Parts Center supplies this durable pin as part of their comprehensive inventory, emphasizing its importance in sustaining engine reliability in demanding trucking applications.
