High-strength materials save 160 kg of weight

 

MAN has used the high-strength material GJV450 (cast iron with vermicular graphite) for the engine block and cylinder head.

As a six-cylinder in-line engine, the new D3876 shares the same basic design and high-tensile materials with the D20/D26 engines and is therefore built around a design that has proved itself over millions of miles. This includes the use of cast iron with vermicular graphite (GJV450) for the engine block and the cylinder head and the solid basic geometry of the engine and the crankshaft main bearing.
