Overview – Engine Parts SEAL;PLATE 2883309
For Cummins cover and housing sealing faces, the Cummins SEAL;PLATE 2883309 provides the correct fit and performance expected from a genuine-spec replacement.
Parts Characteristics
A seal plate – a flat plate with a formed gasket face – that closes a cover or housing opening and keeps oil or coolant contained. It is the interface between two castings, and its flatness and seal decide whether the joint weeps.
Applicable Models & Applications
Fitted to Cummins covers and housings at the corresponding face. Match the plate outline, bolt pattern and seal type against your old part – seal plates for nearby positions differ in both shape and bore.
Maintenance & Replacement
Inspect the plate for distortion and deep scoring before refitting. A plate that has been pried off with a bar rarely sits flat again, and a warped plate weeps no matter how hard the bolts are pulled.
Prepare both sealing faces – clean, dry and free of old gasket – before the plate goes on. Gasket left in the casting grooves is the usual reason a fresh seal still leaks.
Torque the bolts evenly in sequence. A plate drawn down on one side distorts the flange and the new seal cannot close the joint, so it weeps under pressure.
Keep common seal plates for your engine on hand. They are cheap, easily damaged in removal and exactly the part that is missing when a cover needs to go back on today.
Price Reference (USD)
Budget roughly USD 10 to USD 40 for a SEAL;PLATE 2883309; volume orders and stock status can move this range either way.
Value & Service
We supply brand-new seal plates with the bolt pattern and seal confirmed against your engine, so the joint stays dry.
