The Cummins 6BT 5.9L turbo diesel engine sets the gold standard for no-nonsense reliability in the heavy-duty truck and equipment industries. Since hitting the markets in 1984, over a million 6BTs have found their homes powering vehicles and machinery subjected to extreme real-world operating conditions across agriculture, construction, mining, emergency services, and commercial transport.
This versatile inline 6-cylinder is a workhorse that strikes the ideal balance between heft, packaging, fuel economy and brute strength. Its compact dimensions yet generous 5.9-liter displacement – leveraging a proprietary cummins 12 valve – churns out enough low rpm torque to get even the heaviest loads lumbering forward while maintaining responsiveness across its broad powerband. An integrated waste gated turbocharger ensures optimal airflow and efficiency as demands vary.
The Cummins 6BT 5.9L engine delivers an optimal combination of power, reliability, and efficiency in a compact package:
Power and Torque
Durability and Reliability
The 6BT’s fortified internal components, turbocharged power, and integrated auxiliary systems enable it to reliably deliver abundant torque and horsepower decade after decade, even under adverse operating environments.
The Cummins 6BT sees heavy usage in medium and heavy-duty vehicles/equipment that require significant low-end power and durability:
The 6BT is integrated into vehicles and equipment from:
The high-performance exhaust valve handles the sustained high temperatures and pressures placed on the engine during continuous heavy loads. Its enhanced durability improves longevity and reduces operating costs when tasks demand pushing the engine to its limits.
When towing overweight loads up steep terrain, carrying full cargo up grades, or running construction equipment 8-12 hours a day, the robust exhaust valve reduces risk of failure. This prevents unexpected downtime and costly repairs. For operators running vehicles or equipment at full throttle for long durations, the high-performance exhaust valve enhances durability, reliability, and ultimately the bottom line.
With abundant low-end torque, fuel efficiency, and longevity, the Cummins 6BT with the high-performance exhaust valve is ideal for operators running heavy duty vehicles and equipment under load for long hours. The upgraded valve enhances reliability and reduces downtime.
