21143572 Elbow | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Brand-new genuine Volvo Penta connection elbow in the TAD734GE radiator and charge-air-cooler assembly. The elbow changes the direction of the boosted-air or cooler connection while maintaining full flow area and the original hose alignment.

🚤 Compatibility

Typically suits:

• Volvo Penta TAD734GE

• Engine Family: TAD

⚙️ Key Features

• Purpose-formed elbow for the TAD734GE cooling/CAC package
• Correct bend radius and connection diameter
• Maintains clearance from the radiator frame and fan system
• Used with the original clamps and sealing interfaces
• Elbow only; hoses and charge-air pipe are separate
• Engine type: Volvo Penta 7-litre generator-set diesel

🔌 Function

Routes the pressurised intake-air connection through the compact cooler package without excessive restriction.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Boost leakage or oil mist at the joint
• Cracked or distorted elbow
• Hose repeatedly slipping from the connection
• Contact damage from poor alignment

🛠️ Service Notes

• Clean the threads and sealing faces and check the bore is clear before fitting
• Fit new sealing washers, O-rings or gaskets where the original had them, and use thread sealant only where the manual calls for it — never on a joint that seals metal to metal on a cone or a machined face
• Set the elbow so the connection points the way the hose or pipe wants to run, with no strain, kinking or chafing on the line
• Tighten to the figure in the workshop manual for your engine and hold the mating fitting so it cannot turn with it
• Bring the system up to working pressure and temperature, check the joint, then check it again after the first proper run
