Summary
This guideline applies to all camshafts for Caterpillar engines regardless of bore size. This guideline provides the criteria for inspecting a camshaft.
Camshafts that meet the requirement in this guideline can be expected to give normal performance in the same application until the next engine
overhaul. Life will vary depending on application, load, lubrication, and environment.
This guideline contains the latest standards of engineering, which will help minimize owning and operating costs. A part is expected to reach the
next Planned Component Rebuild (PCR) if the part meets the specifications within this guideline and the part is intended for a similar application.
Use this guideline to determine whether a part should be reused. Do not install a part that is not reusable. During reconditioning, correct any
condition that might have caused the original failure.
The dimensions and tolerances provided are to return a part / component to specification. The dimensional information alone is not solely used to
condemn a part from reuse.

Preparation Recommendations
Maximum air pressure at the nozzle must be less than 205 kPa
(30 psi) for cleaning purposes.
Before you inspect a part, clean the part thoroughly to ensure that all components are free from rust, oil, burrs, and debris prior to inspection.
A surface irregularity can hide the indication of an unacceptable defect.
Use a proper lifting device to provide safety to the operator. Also, use a proper lifting device to prevent damage to the part when you lift the
part.
Do not use pressurized air to dry internal components. Compressed air has moisture and contaminants that can cause premature failure of
internal components.
Put hydraulic oil on all machined surfaces to prevent rust or corrosion if inspection is not done immediately after cleaning. Carefully store the
parts in a clean container.
Inspect all flange mating surfaces for fretting. Ensure that flange mating surfaces are true and free from raised material resulting from rust,
nicks, and dents.
Refer to SEBF8148 Reuse and Salvage Guidelines , "General Salvage and Reconditioning Techniques" for available Crack Detection Methods.
Measurement Techniques
NOTICE
Precise measurements shall be made when the component and
measurement equipment are at 20° C (68° F). Measurements
shall be made after both the component and measurement
equipment have had sufficient time to soak at 20° C (68° F).
Ensuring that both the surface and core of the material is at the
same temperature will increase the accuracy of the
measurement taken.

Tappets or Followers
During normal engine operations, the mating surfaces of each camshaft lobe and tappet or follower establish respective individual wear patterns. If
a tappet, or follower is switched to a different location in the engine, the established wear patterns on the camshaft lobes may be incompatible. This
could result in premature wear to either the camshaft and/or tappets. Remember the following four items for evaluating the reusability of tappets or
followers.
1. If a camshaft is used again, make sure that the original tappets or followers are installed in the original locations or replaced with new tappets
or followers.
2. New tappets or followers and used tappets or followers that have a normal, smooth wear pattern can be installed with a camshaft that is used
if the camshaft does not have wear on the camshaft lobe that can be easily seen or felt. Caterpillar recommends installing a replacement
camshaft if the tappets or followers or the camshaft has heavy wear.
3. Tappets or followers can be reused with original camshaft if in "like new" condition. Used tappets or followers cannot be installed on a
new camshaft. Do not use any tappets or followers that operated against damaged camshaft lobes.
4. A tappet or follower is wearing normally if the wear surface has a “mirror-like” texture. The dull appearance of the contact surface of the tappet
or follower could indicate rapid wear of the tappet or follower and camshaft and the tappet or follower should be replaced.

Visual Inspection
Examine camshafts only under proper lighting. The best results of inspection can be obtained by rotating the camshaft and moving the camshaft to
avoid lighting glare. Poor lighting conditions could cause damage to be missed during visual inspection.

Some camshafts can have fissures or cracks in the flange area. Therefore, inspect the flange area visually and then with the magnetic particle
method to reveal any cracks or weakness. If cracks or fissures can be seen without magnification or magnetic particle inspection, the camshaft
cannot be reused. Also, if any cracks or fissures in the flange area are revealed during the Magnetic Particle Inspection, the camshaft cannot be
reused. Look for more information in , SEBF8148 Reuse and Salvage Guidelines , "General Salvage and Reconditioning Techniques".

If there is a crack in the flange area of the camshaft, do not reuse the camshaft.
Note: Refer to Reuse and Salvage Guideline, SEBF8042 , "Resue and Salvage for Crankshafts" for additional information on how to perform a
Magnetic Particle Inspection.

Illustration 77 g01545973
Measuring runout of the camshaft
Place the vee blocks that are for support under the first bearing journal and the last bearing journal. Ensure that the camshaft and vee blocks are
stationary. Use the 8T-5096 Dial Indicator to measure runout.
Lubricate the camshaft bearing journals and install the camshaft into the engine block. Use a torque wrench on the rear end of the camshaft and
check the amount of initial torque that is required to rotate the camshaft inside the camshaft bearings.
Polishing
After cleaning the camshaft, visually inspect each camshaft journal and each camshaft lobe for damage.
Polishing camshafts uses identical procedures, materials, and required equipment as polishing crankshafts. Refer to Reuse and Salvage
Guidelines, SEBF8042 , "Reuse and Salvage for Crankshafts" for polishing instructions.
Any camshaft lobes with corrosive damage (rust), minor damage from debris (indentations), and fatigue pitting need to be polished before
determining reusability. Follow the procedures below to polish a camshaft lobe with “touch-up” polishing.
1. Polish the camshaft lobe with Emery polishing paper. 1U-6858 Abrasive Material (200 grit or less) should be used. This part of the procedure
is the “rough polishing” of the camshaft lobes.
2. Polish the camshaft lobe with Emery polishing paper 1U-8283 (600 grit or less) should be used. This part of the procedure is the “fine
polishing” of the camshaft lobes.
3. Wash the camshaft or clean the camshaft after polishing to remove any excess grit or debris from polishing.
NOTICE
Keep all parts clean from contaminants

Storage Procedures
Proper protection of the camshaft from corrosion is important. Corrosion will start in as little as 1 hour after the camshaft has been cleaned.
When the camshaft will not be inspected for 1 hour or less, the camshaft should be coated with a rust or corrosion inhibitor or coated with clean
engine oil. The camshaft should be individually wrapped to prevent contamination, and should be stored in a protected area to avoid damage. See
Illustration 80.
When the camshaft will not be inspected in two days or more, the camshaft should be coated with a rust or corrosion inhibitor or coated with clean
engine oil and should be placed in a container which is clean and structurally solid. The container should be covered or wrapped in plastic to
prevent damage and contamination to the camshaft. See Illustration 81.
