Cylinder Head Plug
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Cylinder Head Plug, also known as a Freeze Plug, is a small but important component in the engine of a commercial truck. This plug is designed to seal off the openings in the cylinder head that are used during the manufacturing process. Once the engine is assembled, these plugs are removed to allow for the flow of coolant through the engine block. The Cylinder Head Plug is typically made of steel or brass and is designed to withstand the high temperatures and pressures of the engine. Without the Cylinder Head Plug, the engine would not be able to properly regulate its temperature, which could lead to overheating and engine failure. Additionally, the coolant would not be able to flow through the engine block, which could cause damage to other components. Overall, the Cylinder Head Plug plays a critical role in ensuring the proper functioning of a commercial truck's engine and should be regularly inspected and replaced as needed.
