reusability and salvage program. Every effort has been made to
provide the most current and relevant information known to
Caterpillar Inc. Since the Company makes ongoing changes and
improvements to its products, this guideline must be used with the
latest technical information available from Caterpillar to ensure such
changes and improvements are incorporated where applicable.

The areas that must be checked to see if the turbine wheels can be
used again are:
Spline Wear
The 1T-0221 and 1T-0245 Turbine Wheels cannot be used again if
the spline teeth are worn too much. Use a flexible ruler to measure
the tip width on the top and bottom of three spline teeth, 120 apart
as shown in Illustration 5.

Fin Damage
Do not use any turbine wheel that has cracks in the fins. Most fin
cracks will be located on the inside circumference as shown in
Illustration 6. However, the fins should also be checked on the
outside circumference.

eventually causes contact and wear of the seal (inside) bore and
outside diameter of the turbine wheel.

Remove any lip from the inside circumference of the turbine wheel.
1. Put four steel balls in the turbine wheel as shown in Chart 3 and
Illustration 9. Put the balls approximately 90 apart.

2. Put the stator that is used with the turbine in position on the
balls as shown in Illustration 9. Make sure the balls do not
move. Turn the stator until the flat surface of the turbine wheel is
against the balls.

Salvage Procedures
Turbine wheels with excessive wear can be reused after the inside
and outside circumferences are built up with metal spray.
a. Build up the worn bore and outside diameter with a MIG welder
using 0.76 mm (0.030 inch) diameter or 1.14 mm (0.045 inch)
diameter AWS ER4043 wire. Use Argon shield gas at 1.0 cmh
(35 cfh) to minimize heat input and penetration. Set the wire
feed speed to 150-170 mm per second (350-400 inches per
minute), and set the voltage to 19-22 volts.
b. Metal spray is an acceptable method of restoring a surface to
the original size. Consult the manufacturer of the metal spray
equipment for powder recommendations, machine settings, and
application procedures. Each step in the procedure is critical in
achieving the desired coating bond and finish.

flow paths causes a reduction of converter efficiency.

1.
2. Two people are needed to measure Dimension (C). One person
holds a rigid 150 mm (6 inch) steel ruler. The other person uses
a depth micrometer.
3. Put the straight edge of the ruler on face (E) of the turbine wheel
as shown in Illustration 12. Use both hands to hold the ruler
firmly (without movement) against face (E). Point the other end
of the ruler toward the hub, but do not allow the ruler to touch
the curved surface of the turbine wheel.
4. Use a depth micrometer to measure dimension (C) from face (F)
to the straight edge of the ruler as shown in Illustration 12. Be
sure the base of the micrometer is held firmly against face (F).
5. If dimension (C) is greater than or equal to the minimum
dimension given in Chart 5, go to Step 5. If dimension (C) is less
than the minimum dimension, machine face (F) until dimension
(C) equals machined dimension (C) as shown in Chart 5. Make
a spacer from SAE 1020 steel that is 3.18 0.08 mm (0.125
0.003 inch) thick and has the outer and inner diameters shown
in Chart 5. The sides of the spacer must be parallel within 0.08
mm (0.003 inch).
6. Measure dimension (D) with a micrometer. If a spacer was
made in step 4, place the spacer on the end of the hub when
measuring dimension (D).
7. If dimension (D) as measured in step 5 is equal to or greater
than the minimum dimension given in Chart 6, the turbine wheel
can be used again. If dimension (D) is less than the minimum
dimension, machine face (G) until dimension (D) equals the

Note: The 1T-0221 and 1T-0245 Turbine Wheels have oil slots
on each end of the hub that are 12.7 mm (0.50 inch) wide and
3.0 mm (0.12 inch) deep. Machine new slots in the ends of the
hub as needed.
