Overview – RETAINER, COOLER ELEMENT 110827
The Cummins RETAINER, COOLER ELEMENT 110827 is a direct replacement used in Cummins engine oil-cooler positions as the cooler-element retainer, with no modification required at installation.
Parts Characteristics
A retainer that locates and clamps the engine oil-cooler element (core) in its housing, holding the core against the gasket face so the oil routes through the cooler and not past it. It carries clamp load, so a true, undamaged retainer keeps the cooler sealing and the oil cool.
Applicable Models & Applications
Used at Cummins oil-cooler positions specifying this retainer. Match the profile and the bolt holes against your old retainer – cooler retainers differ in how they clamp and clear.
Maintenance & Replacement
Inspect the retainer for cracks and a distorted clamping face at every cooler service. A retainer that has let the core shift bypasses the cooler, and the bypass is what lets the oil run hot.
Replace the retainer rather than re-torque a bent one. A retainer that no longer clamps true lets the core walk and the seal opens.
Re-torque the retention to specification with a fresh gasket. A retainer loose in its bolts lets the core weep and the oil stains the block.
Keep the common cooler-element retainers for your engine on the shelf. They are cheap relative to a cooked cooler, and they are exactly the part missing when a core needs locating today.
