Inclined Cylinder Head Fixture DI-42.000871

The inclined cylinder head clamping device is used to firmly hold cylinder heads with inclined bases during the grinding process. These heads, common in V6, V8 and some motorcycle engines, need special clamping because they don't have flat bases. The DI-42.000871 Chinelatto device allows the machine shop operator to work precisely on these heads, keeping the part motionless during the entire machining operation.

The DI-42.000871 Chinelatto device is a robust clamping equipment designed specifically for inclined base cylinder heads. It features treated steel construction that ensures high durability and maximum precision during grinding. It's compatible with most cylinder head grinding machines on the market. Technical specifications may change according to manufacturer improvements, but always maintains focus on precision and resistance for intensive use in specialized machine shops.

This inclined clamp works with cylinder heads that have inclined bases, mainly from V6, V8, some V4 and certain sport motorcycle engines. It's ideal for heads where the sealing face with the block is not parallel to the upper face of the head. The 42.000871 model adapts to different inclination angles, allowing work with various engine brands and models that feature this specific constructive characteristic.

The inclined cylinder head device has specific angular claws and supports to accommodate non-flat bases, while common devices only work with flat base cylinder heads. The DI-42.000871 model has special geometry that compensates for the base angle, keeping the head level for precise grinding. Common devices cannot adequately clamp inclined heads, causing vibration and imprecision in the finish. The difference lies in the adaptation to the varied angles of V engines.

The clamping works through adjustable claws that adapt to the cylinder head base angle. First, position the head on the device's angular supports, then adjust the claws until they make firm contact with the part's sides. The 42.000871 device automatically compensates for the inclination, leaving the surface to be ground perfectly horizontal. The clamping system distributes pressure evenly, avoiding deformations and ensuring the head remains motionless during the entire machining process.

A quality device like the DI-42.000871 lasts many years with proper use. Maintenance includes regular cleaning with grease remover, lubrication of moving points with light oil and periodic checking of bolt tightness. Avoid impacts and always clean chips after each use. Chinelatto's robust construction supports intensive use, but service life depends on operator care. Store in dry location and perform annual review of wear components.
