Cylinder liners play an essential role in the performance, durability, and long-term reliability of any diesel engine. For Cummins engines—well known for their strength and efficiency—selecting the right liner is critical to maintaining compression, reducing wear, and ensuring smooth operation. With IZUMI’s high-quality Japanese-engineered components, choosing the right cylinder liner becomes easier, more reliable, and more cost-effective.
This guide explains how to choose the correct IZUMI cylinder liners for your Cummins engine and why IZUMI is trusted by customers around the world.
Cylinder liners provide the wear surface for the pistons and rings while protecting the engine block from heat and friction. The quality and fit of a liner directly affect:
Compression performance
Fuel efficiency
Engine temperature control
Lifespan of pistons and piston rings
Overall engine reliability
Choosing a precise, durable liner is essential during rebuilds or overhauls—especially for heavy-duty Cummins engines.
Cummins engines may use different types of liners depending on the model:
These liners make direct contact with coolant, offering excellent heat dissipation. They must be corrosion-resistant and tightly sealed.
These press into the engine block and do not contact coolant directly. They require perfect dimensional accuracy for proper heat transfer.
IZUMI manufactures both wet and dry liners with Japanese precision to meet Cummins’ high standards.
Each Cummins engine has unique specifications. IZUMI cylinder liners are available for a wide range of models, including:
4BT / 4BT3.9
6BT / 6BT5.9
ISB, ISC, ISL
QSB, QSC
N14
K19, K38
And more
Selecting the exact model ensures the perfect fit and maximum performance.
