Induction-Hardened Cylinder Liners by IPD

IPD offers a full range of induction-hardened cylinder liners. IPD was the first aftermarket company to develop Induction Heat-Treated cylinder liners. IPD liners became known as the “hard-liners” and have a track record of extended durability. One of our IPD patented products is our original IPD Crevice Seal Style liners for Caterpillar® 3400 Series and C15 engines. These crevice seal liners offer a wider rectangular seal in addition to the two o-ring seals reducing the amount of cylinder liner movement and decreasing o-ring failure. IPD’s cylinder kits are available for Caterpillar®, Cummins®, Detroit Diesel®, and Waukesha® engines and includes: pistons, rings, pins, and retainers in addition to the cylinder liner.

“Most people look at parts as just parts. I however look at IPD as a brand. A brand that I am proud to represent.”

Danny Sammons,

“Most of the time the reason that I’m using IPD is because they’re offering a product that I can’t even get from the OEM. This engine is a good example. So I’ve got the new raised edge liners in this engine and that’s something I can’t even get from CAT OEM and also these are one-piece steel pistons for 14.6 liters C15. Caterpillar doesn’t even offer one-piece steel pistons for 14.6, 30.6, or C15’s. So it has nothing to do with saving money, it’s more about the product itself. I’ll take a one-piece steel piston and a higher horsepower application over a two-piece steel (inaudible) anyday. That’s why I’m using IPD Parts.”

“I’ve been working with IPD Parts for a long time, and I can confidently say that issues with their products are extremely rare. Whenever someone calls saying they have a problem with an IPD part, my first thought is usually that the issue is more likely due to an installation error rather than a product defect. IPD’s quality is top-notch, and I trust them completely.”
