• Caterpillar 3408

It is perfect for applications in industrial, construction, agriculture, mining, and mobile earth-moving equipment where reliable vibration control is essential.

Replacement & Service Intervals

For optimal engine performance and to prevent catastrophic damage, replace your harmonic balancer at the recommended interval of 350,000 to 500,000 miles. Timely replacement is crucial- especially after an engine overhaul- to avoid excessive wear, bearing failure, or crankshaft damage.

Additional Information

• Precision Manufacturing:
  CNC-machined parts and a laser-welded, sealed housing ensure the highest standards of performance and durability.
• Cost-Effective:
  Avoid the pitfalls of cheaper, overseas alternatives that can compromise your engine’s integrity.
• Important Note:
  This damper does not fit the SDP versions of CAT C15 ACERT diesel motors (2008–2010). Always verify compatibility before purchase.

Enhance your engine’s efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure long-term reliability with the Vibratech 716405-000 Heavy Duty Viscous Crankshaft Damper- the smart choice for superior vibration control and power transmission.
