It is manufactured to the original Volvo dimensional, material and interface requirements so the serviced assembly retains its designed alignment, sealing, load capacity and operating reliability. In service, it supports the upper vertical gear and maintains gear-mesh alignment under radial and thrust loading. Selection must be confirmed by OEM part number 181013, the exact engine\/product model, serial number and installed configuration.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🚤 Compatibility\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Typically suits:\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta XDP-B\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta XDP-D3\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Engine Family:\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  XDP\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚙️ Key Features\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  OEM Volvo Penta part number 181013\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Net weight: 1.148 kg\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Fits XDP drive installations\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔌 Function\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Supports the upper vertical gear and maintains gear-mesh alignment under radial and thrust loading.
