Tappet

Precise valve control for the engine The tappet, also known as a cam follower, is an important component in an engine's valvetrain. This part follows the profile of the camshaft and converts the rotary motion into a lifting motion for the valves. Correct operation is needed for proper engine timing, which directly affects the power and fuel consumption of both trucks and tractors. Wear resistance under high pressure Cam followers are continuously exposed to high contact pressure and friction. For this reason, febi supplies tappets that comply with original specifications regarding material hardness and surface treatment. This prevents premature wear on both the tappet itself and the expensive camshaft, allowing the engine to run reliably. Maintaining engine performance Worn tappets can lead to ticking noises, reduced compression, and a rough-running engine. By choosing OE-compliant replacement parts from febi, you restore the original valve lift height and timing. This helps maintain the engine's performance and the vehicle's efficiency, whether for industrial equipment or transport vehicles.
