Scania
Piston for Scania engines
This piston is a core component for Scania diesel engines found in heavy-duty trucks, buses, and industrial machinery. It facilitates the conversion of combustion energy into mechanical motion.

- 94061730
- Brand
- Scania
The piston 94061730 serves as a primary moving component within the cylinder of a Scania diesel engine. It is responsible for compressing the air-fuel mixture during the intake and compression strokes and absorbing the force generated by combustion. This force is transferred through the connecting rod to the crankshaft, where it is converted into rotational energy to power the machine. The component includes machined grooves designed to house piston rings, which maintain the seal between the combustion chamber and the crankcase to manage oil control and gas pressure.
This part is compatible with various Scania diesel engine configurations used across heavy-duty transport and industrial equipment. It is engineered to meet the specific dimensional and weight requirements of the engine block to ensure proper clearance and balance during operation. By maintaining the integrity of the combustion chamber, this piston supports the overall compression efficiency of the engine assembly.
In internal combustion engines, the piston acts as a movable boundary for the combustion chamber. It must withstand the cyclical pressures and thermal loads inherent in the power stroke while maintaining a precise fit within the cylinder bore to ensure efficient energy transfer and prevent blow-by.
