6.7 Cummins Cylinder Head

The 6.7 Cummins cylinder head serves as an essential fixed component within all types of internal combustion engines. Positioned atop the engine, it is securely fastened to the engine block using crucial or captive screws to ensure precise calibration and sealing. Functioning as the most heavily loaded element in the engine, its primary function is to encase the top of the cylinders, enduring high temperatures and pressures. Any technical faults within the 6.7 Cummins cylinder head can significantly impair the overall operation of the engine.

  • Appearance and Components: The 6.7 Cummins cylinder head forms the upper enclosure of the combustion chamber above each piston, housing spark plug sockets and injector holders. It also accommodates intake and exhaust ducts, along with associated valves, guides, and return springs. In many instances, it provides support for one or two camshafts, bucket tappets, or rocker arms. Additionally, the 6.7 Cummins cylinder head includes ducts for the circulation of fluid coolant.
  • Thermal Insulation: Apart from its role in blocking the cylinders, the 6.7 Cummins cylinder head acts as a thermal insulator. While the engine side reaches temperatures of up to 300°C, the external side remains relatively cool. The cylinder head absorbs approximately 70% of the heat generated by the engine and must withstand high levels of thermal and mechanical stress. Depending on the required applications, it is typically crafted from iron alloy or aluminum, the latter being a lighter option with greater thermal conductivity.
  • Design and Manufacturing: Given its complexity and crucial role in engine function, the 6.7 Cummins cylinder head design demands meticulous attention and precision during production. It requires integrating various elements and extensive experience in the mechanical sector to ensure optimal performance and durability.

FAQs

The 24-valve engine offers improved throttle response and drivability, attributed to its enhanced airflow and coolant flow when compared to the 12-valve version. Additionally, it boasts a one-piece valve cover with a reusable gasket, representing an upgrade from the 12V’s configuration with six individual covers.


A cylinder head in a diesel engine serves multiple purposes. Firstly, it seals the top of the cylinder bore or sleeve. Secondly, it houses the exhaust valves (and intake valves if applicable), the fuel injector, and associated linkages.
