PRODUCT LINE ADDITIONS: REMANUFACTURED 3406E SHORT BLOCK

Caterpillar announces the addition of a Remanufactured 3406E short block for service of engines with 2WS serial number prefix.

Reman short blocks expand the repair options available. When used with other Remanufactured products and reusable components from the core engine, short blocks help reduce turnaround time. Cat® Reman short blocks are fully assembled with the block group, piston and connecting rod groups and crankshaft assembly.

All engines returned as cores must meet the core acceptance guidelines as identified in the "Core Acceptance Criteria", SELD0026. Block groups from 2WS serial number engines are acceptable core.

Please refer to the Caterpillar® Core Management Information System (CMIS 2) Parts Information application describing all Reman part/CAF and related information. Also refer to other CMIS 2 inquiry applications such as Customer Profiles, Inspection Reason Codes, Inspection Line Inquiry, Add Charge Information, Entitlement Activity, Entitlement Inquiry, CCR Inquiry, CCR Entry, Shipment Processing; Process Packaging Grief; and Reporting to properly manage core returns and monitor inspection performance. This information will be available to all dealers worldwide after your CMIS 2 conversion date. In the meantime, please continue to use the current CMIS Entitlement Parts Inquiry Screen describing the list of parts in a Core Acceptability Family (CAF) and related part number detail.
