Technician’s Note: Installation & Inspection

Technician’s Note: The NT855 series has multiple camshaft variations depending on the CPL (Control Parts List). Before installing the 3801763, verify if your engine is a Big Cam I, II, III, or IV, as the injector cam lobe profiles differ significantly. Installing a Big Cam shaft in a Small Cam block (or vice versa) will result in incorrect injection timing and potential engine damage. Always replace the cam followers (rollers) when installing a new shaft.

Technical Q&A: Cummins NT855 Camshaft

Q1: What is the most common physical failure mode for the NT855 camshaft?

A1: Symptom: Reduced valve lift, misfiring, and high metal content in engine oil. Diagnosis: Lobe “spalling” (surface pitting) caused by high-pressure valve spring contact and insufficient oil lubrication during cold starts. Solution: Our 3801763 replacement camshafts utilize precision induction hardening reaching 62 HRC, which provides a durable wear-resistant surface that withstands the impact of heavy-duty valve trains.

Q2: What are the critical installation parameters for the Cummins NT855 3801763 camshaft?

A2: Technical Detail: Camshaft thrust plate end play must be verified within 0.05mm – 0.20mm. Pro-Tip: It is mandatory to replace all valve tappets (lifters) during camshaft replacement. Installing new lobes against worn tappets will create uneven contact pressure, causing the new camshaft to fail within hours.

Q3: Why is induction hardening essential for NT855 cam lobes?

A3: Diagnosis: Big Cam engines operate at high combustion pressures, which increases the impact force on the camshaft lobes. Our Solution: We use deep-profile induction hardening on the lobe surfaces. This process ensures the hardness penetrates deep into the material, maintaining the camshaft profile integrity under the continuous high-RPM loads required by heavy mining equipment like the Komatsu D155.
