Engine valve for Cummins NT855

The engine valve NT855/2 serves as a vital component within the distribution system of the Cummins NT855 engine. It regulates the flow of gases into and out of the combustion chamber, which is necessary for the four-stroke cycle of the engine. The intake valve facilitates the entry of air into the cylinder, while the exhaust valve allows for the expulsion of combustion gases after the power stroke.

This component is specifically engineered for the Cummins NT855 engine model. Proper sealing of the valve against the valve seat is necessary to maintain cylinder compression and ensure efficient engine operation. The precise timing and movement of these valves are controlled by the camshaft and valve train assembly to synchronize with the piston position.

In internal combustion engines, valves manage the gas exchange process. By opening and closing at specific intervals, they ensure that the engine receives the required volume of air for combustion and clears the cylinder of exhaust products, directly impacting the power output and overall efficiency of the machinery.
