Cross-reference numbers

The numbers 3G8446 and 3G-8446 identify the same gasket designation; the difference is the formatting of the part number. Use the number shown on the existing part or in the equipment parts documentation when checking application compatibility.

Specifications

The listed dimensions are length 11 cm, width 8.7 cm, and depth 0.1 cm. The listed weight is 0.1 lb. No additional information about the gasket material, sealing position, included components, or installation hardware is provided for this part.

Before installation, compare the dimensions and identification number with the removed gasket and the parts documentation for the Caterpillar machine or engine. The model designation alone may not identify every individual installation position, so application-specific part-number verification is required where several gaskets are used in the same assembly.
