Product Description
CUMMINS 3595658 OEM TURBOCHARGER V-BAND CLAMP FOR 2003-2007 5.9L CUMMINS HE341 AND HE351CW
The Cummins 3595658 OEM turbocharger V-band clamp is the factory-correct replacement clamp designed for HE341 and HE351CW turbochargers used on 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins common rail diesel engine.
This heavy-duty turbine outlet clamp secures the turbocharger exhaust outlet to the downpipe connection to maintain a leak-free seal under high heat and boost conditions.
A worn, stretched, rusted, or damaged V-band clamp can cause exhaust leaks, slow turbo spool-up, soot buildup, boost pressure loss, and exhaust whistle noise. Replacing the clamp with a genuine Cummins OEM component restores proper clamping force and reliable turbocharger sealing performance.
