Cummins ISX Dual Cam Turbo Parts Catalog

The Cummins ISX Dual Cam engine represents one of Cummins’ most advanced heavy-duty diesel designs, built for durability, power, and efficiency across demanding industrial, trucking, and marine applications. The turbocharging system is central to that performance, allowing the engine to deliver exceptional horsepower and torque while optimizing fuel economy. To maintain that efficiency and reliability, every component of the turbo system—from the gaskets to the sealing compounds—must be precisely engineered to handle the extreme conditions of pressure, heat, and vibration that occur during operation.

Diesel Pro Power supplies genuine-quality turbo components for Cummins ISX Dual Cam engines, ensuring every replacement part meets or exceeds OEM standards. Our catalog includes critical items like turbo gaskets and high-temperature jointing compounds, both designed to ensure a leak-free, long-lasting turbocharger installation that performs flawlessly under load.

Cummins Turbo Gasket for ISX Dual Cam Engines

The Cummins Turbo Gasket is a precision-engineered seal that connects the turbocharger to the exhaust manifold and associated joints, preventing leaks of exhaust gases and maintaining the integrity of the boost system. Though it might seem like a simple part, the turbo gasket plays an essential role in ensuring the turbocharger performs at peak efficiency.

In high-performance diesel engines like the ISX Dual Cam, even a small leak between flanges can cause a significant loss in boost pressure, reduced engine output, and increased exhaust temperature. This gasket, therefore, serves as the critical barrier that keeps exhaust energy directed into the turbocharger turbine—maximizing airflow and engine performance.

Product Highlights:

• OEM-Grade Material Composition: Manufactured using durable, heat-resistant materials capable of withstanding temperatures that regularly exceed 600°C.

• Perfect Fit for ISX and QSX Engines: Designed to match factory specifications, ensuring compatibility across ISX Dual Cam turbo assemblies.

• Leak-Proof Design: Creates a tight seal that prevents exhaust gas leaks, maintaining consistent turbo boost and combustion efficiency.

• Enhanced Durability: Engineered to resist fatigue, cracking, and deformation from constant heat cycles and vibration.

• Ease of Installation: Designed to fit seamlessly with standard Cummins hardware, making replacement fast and reliable.

Common Applications:

• Over-the-road freight trucks using the ISX Dual Cam engine

• Industrial power generation systems

• Construction and mining equipment

• Marine propulsion engines (retrofit and commercial vessels)

Replacing the turbo gasket during any turbo rebuild or service is one of the simplest yet most important steps to protect engine performance. Diesel Pro Power’s gasket ensures that your Cummins ISX Dual Cam engine maintains full turbo efficiency and prevents exhaust leaks that could lead to loss of power, poor fuel economy, and potential turbo damage.

762 High-Temperature Jointing Compound for Cummins Turbos

To complement the gasket, Diesel Pro Power also offers the 762 High-Temperature Jointing Compound, a professional-grade sealant designed for turbo installations and exhaust system joints. This compound provides additional assurance against leaks in high-temperature areas, especially where extreme heat or pressure fluctuations might compromise gasket integrity over time.

Formulated for demanding diesel environments, the 762 compound can withstand continuous exposure to heat ranging from 550°C up to 760°C (1022°F to 1400°F), making it ideal for heavy-duty turbo applications. It’s widely used across both Cummins ISX Dual Cam and Detroit Diesel platforms and is trusted by marine operators, fleet mechanics, and industrial engine rebuilders worldwide.

Technical Features:

• Temperature Range: 550°C to 760°C (1022°F to 1400°F)

• Tube Size: 225 grams — sufficient for multiple applications

• Type: Non-setting, high-temperature sealing compound

• Usage: Metal-to-metal joints, exhaust manifold flanges, and turbo housings

Benefits of Using the 762 Jointing Compound:

• Seals Imperfections: Fills microscopic gaps and irregularities in mating surfaces, preventing gas or oil leaks.

• Resists Extreme Heat: Retains sealing properties even under prolonged exposure to turbo exhaust temperatures.

• Improves Gasket Longevity: Enhances the performance of turbo gaskets by reinforcing seal integrity under pressure.

• Reduces Maintenance Costs: Helps prevent premature gasket failures and leaks that can lead to expensive repairs.

• Corrosion Protection: Provides a barrier against moisture and corrosive gases, extending component life.

The compound’s non-hardening formulation allows it to flex with heat expansion and contraction, making it particularly effective in turbo systems that undergo frequent load changes. When applied correctly during turbo installation, it ensures a long-lasting, secure seal that stands up to heavy-duty operational conditions.

The Importance of Proper Turbo Sealing in ISX Dual Cam Engines

The Cummins ISX Dual Cam turbo system is engineered to optimize airflow and fuel efficiency, delivering powerful performance with reduced emissions. However, even the most advanced turbo system relies heavily on proper sealing. Leaks in the turbocharger joints can result in:

• Reduced boost pressure and overall engine power

• Increased fuel consumption

• Higher exhaust gas temperatures

• Turbo overspeed or imbalance due to disrupted airflow

• Potential damage to sensors and surrounding components

By pairing a high-quality turbo gasket with the 762 jointing compound, operators ensure complete sealing protection—maintaining full turbo efficiency, reducing emissions, and extending engine life.

Recommended Maintenance Practices:

1. Inspect During Overhauls: Replace the turbo gasket and reapply jointing compound during every major turbo or manifold service.

2. Clean Surfaces Thoroughly: Ensure all flanges are clean and free from oil, soot, or corrosion before applying new seals.

3. Avoid Over-Tightening: Proper torque application prevents flange warping and uneven sealing.

4. Allow Cure Time: After applying the compound, allow sufficient curing time before operating under full load to ensure maximum adhesion.

5. Monitor for Leaks: A light smoke test or pressure test can confirm the integrity of the seal before engine operation.

These practices not only maintain efficiency but also prevent unnecessary wear on turbo bearings, turbine blades, and associated engine systems.
