Cylinder liner for Mercedes-Benz 240D

The cylinder liner A6160110710 is a component for the Mercedes-Benz 240D diesel engine. This cylindrical part is inserted into the engine block to provide a smooth, precise surface for the piston to travel against while simultaneously forming the wall of the combustion chamber. It is manufactured by Mercedes-Benz to meet the specific dimensional requirements of this engine series.

This component is compatible with the Mercedes-Benz 240D model. The interior surface is machined to facilitate proper piston ring sealing and oil retention, which are necessary for maintaining compression and engine efficiency. Proper installation of the liner is required to ensure the alignment of the piston assembly within the block.

In internal combustion engines, cylinder liners serve to contain the pressure generated during the combustion cycle and manage heat transfer from the piston to the cooling system. By providing a replaceable wear surface, the liner protects the engine block from direct friction and thermal stress, allowing for maintenance of the cylinder bore geometry over the operational life of the engine.
