5256202 Cylinder Head for Cummins ISLe Engines

What does a compressor cylinder head do?

This cylinder head functions as a vital component within the air brake compressor assembly, managing the combustion or compression chamber sealing to ensure consistent air pressure delivery. Built with high-strength components, it is engineered to withstand the intense thermal and mechanical stresses found in heavy commercial vehicle engine environments.

Engine compatibility and fitment

This specific part is compatible with Cummins engines, specifically the ISLe, ISDe, and ISBe series. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into the existing compressor architecture to restore pneumatic system efficiency.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For workshop technicians performing engine overhauls, it is essential to verify that the cylinder head matches the specific compressor architecture. When replacing this component, ensure all mounting surfaces are clean and torque specifications are strictly followed to prevent air leaks or pressure drops within the braking system.

Troubleshooting and selection

Maintaining the integrity of the cylinder head is crucial for preventing system failures in heavy commercial vehicles. Regular inspection of the head seating and valve areas can prevent premature wear of other compressor components.

OE cross-reference

25 25 10 (Compressor Cylinder Head) is the equivalent of the Cummins OE number. This part directly replaces Cummins OE number 5256202.
