Caterpillar original Common Rail Fuel Injector 382-0480 for C6.6 Engine, Replacement for OEM 282-0490, including cross reference 306-9380 and 10R-7672, for Excavator and Truck original new injector

For Caterpillar diesel engine overhaul and heavy-duty equipment fleet maintenance, the CAT 382-0480 common rail fuel injector is a precision-engineered replacement solution purpose-built for C6 series and C6.6 diesel engines. Designed for global industrial aftermarket use, it fits a broad range of Caterpillar-powered equipment including excavators, loaders, heavy trucks, generator sets, mining and construction machinery, industrial power packs, agricultural diesel equipment and stationary power systems, supporting spare parts supply and scheduled maintenance needs across multiple industrial sectors.

This injector regulates fuel delivery volume, injection timing and spray pattern to optimize combustion efficiency, delivering stable high-pressure fuel delivery, fine atomization and consistent injection response under demanding operating conditions. Its industrial-grade construction features precision machining, high-pressure and leakage resistance, a durable injector body and tested spray patterns, with OEM-type fitment to support reliable power output, reduced fuel waste, lower exhaust smoke and smoother idle for harsh industrial work environments.

To guarantee correct fitment, buyers must verify compatibility via the original injector number, engine serial number, equipment model and injector coding prior to installation, and provide full engine and machine details when placing orders. Following official Caterpillar service torque specifications and installation procedures, plus scheduled maintenance with high-quality diesel and regularly replaced fuel filters, extends injector service life; for optimal engine balance, full injector set replacement is recommended during engine overhauls.
