22331426 Bracket | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

A genuine support bracket used in the Volvo Penta TWD1643GE cooling package. It locates the protecting screen or adjoining radiator/fan guarding so the guard remains rigid and correctly spaced from rotating fan components.

⚙️ Key Features

• Genuine Volvo Penta cooling-package bracket
• Used with the TWD1643GE radiator and fan guarding arrangement
• Maintains guard position and fan clearance
• Original hole spacing and formed offset
• Reduces guard vibration and rattling
• Bracket only; screen, bushes and fasteners are separate

🔌 Function

Supports the cooling-system guard at the designed position so it cannot contact the fan and continues to provide effective personnel protection.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Loose guard or rattling
• Corrosion reducing bracket strength
• Insufficient fan clearance caused by a bent bracket

🛠️ Service Notes

• Offer the bracket up and start every fastener by hand before tightening any of them, so the component is not pulled into a strained position
• Check the mating faces are clean, flat and free of corrosion scale — a bracket that does not sit flat will work loose and let the component move
• Renew self-locking nuts, lock washers, tab washers or thread-locking compound wherever the original assembly used them, and tighten to the figure given in the workshop manual for your engine
• Where the bracket carries a rubber mount or bush, renew that at the same time rather than reusing a perished one
• On brackets in the inlet and exhaust area, never force alignment to make the holes line up — cure the misalignment at its source, or the bracket and the component it holds will both crack
