Part Number: 4P6508 (Caterpillar reference 4P-6508)
Type: Engine radiator core - core only, no tanks or frame
Fin Density: 3.54 fins per centimetre, roughly nine per inch
Air Flow: 52.3 kg per minute
Construction: Multiple row build for heat dissipation, rated for pressure and vibration
Material: Carbon steel, structural steel and alloy steel - no copper in the build
Weight: 30.2 lbs.
Condition: Aftermarket replacement part
Application: Replaces the engine radiator core on Caterpillar 970F, 980F and 980F II wheel loaders
Shipping Restrictions: Ships to the lower 48 US states only
Note: IMPORTANT: Caterpillar also catalogues 4P-0897 against the 970F and 980F. That number is a copper stackable module covering eight machines; this one is an all-steel engine radiator core covering three. They are different parts despite carrying the same supplier cost and weight. Caterpillar publishes no dimensions for this core, so measure the unit being removed. Tanks, frame, hoses and hardware are not included. Ships LTL freight.
Common Use Case or Symptoms:
Order this when a 970F or 980F runs warm through a shift with the fan and belts proven good - with a published fin density this tight, a core that has silted internally loses cooling long before it shows a leak, and only a pressure test will find it.
Why Choose Broken Tractor?
✅ Fin Density On Record: 3.54 fins per centimetre and 52.3 kg per minute of airflow - published performance figures most cores in this catalog do not carry.
✅ All Steel No Copper: Carbon, structural and alloy steel throughout, which is the published difference between this core and the copper module that also fits these loaders.
✅ Three Loader Fit: 970F, 980F and 980F II - a narrower and more specific fit than the eight-machine module.
