FAQ

Q1: Is the 1836320C1 piston an exact replacement for the original Perkins part?
Yes. This piston is manufactured to the same OEM size and material specifications as the original Perkins 1836320C1. It is designed for a direct drop-in fit for the 1306 engine. We recommend comparing the piston height, pin bore diameter, and ring groove dimensions with your existing part to confirm 100% compatibility.

Q2: What other parts should I replace when installing this piston?
For a proper engine rebuild, it is strongly recommended to replace the piston rings, cylinder liners, and connecting rod bearings at the same time. Using new rings with a new piston ensures proper ring seating and compression. Always follow the engine manufacturer’s recommended torque specifications and break-in procedures after installation.

Q3: How is the piston packaged to prevent damage during international shipping?
Each piston is individually wrapped in a protective plastic bag and then securely packed in a sturdy box with foam or cardboard dividers to prevent scratching or bending. For bulk orders, multiple boxed pistons are placed in a reinforced carton or wooden crate for sea freight, ensuring they arrive in perfect condition regardless of transit distance.
