Specifications

Part identification

The primary identification number is 8T4241. The same number may be formatted with a hyphen as 8T-4241 in equipment parts documentation. The part description is “ring,” and the supplied data specifies its external axial design, steel construction, free diameter, and applicable shaft diameter.

Specific Caterpillar machine models, machine series, installation positions, and additional replacement numbers are not specified in the available product data. Compatibility should therefore be checked against the equipment parts documentation using part number 8T4241 or 8T-4241 before installation.
