$114.26
Built for Cummins big-cam and N-series platforms, the Mahle Clevite 2242823 piston fits NH/NT/NT855 engines using a 5.500" (140 mm) bore. Its dual-Ni skirt and precision machining maintain correct piston-to-liner clearance, helping reduce scuffing, blow-by, and oil consumption during long-haul duty. This piston interchanges with Cummins OE 3050480 (bare piston) and 3801744 (piston kit), making it a dependable OE-style solution for inframe or full overhauls. Supplied new by Wofford Truck Parts.
Specifications
The Mahle Clevite 2242823 engine piston is engineered for Cummins NH/NT/NT855 diesel families, a proven workhorse platform in heavy-duty trucks and equipment. Designed for a 140 mm (5.500") bore, this piston uses OE-matched crown geometry and a dual-Ni skirt treatment to improve wear resistance and stability under high-load, high-temperature cycles. Proper piston fit is essential for ring sealing, coolant/oil control, and liner life—especially in NT855 rebuilds. Part 2242823 replaces Cummins 3050480 (bare) and 3801744 (kit) for correct drop-in service.
