The 860516353 Intercooler is a genuine XCMG charge air cooler designed for GR series motor graders. This high-efficiency heat exchanger reduces the temperature of compressed air from the turbocharger before it enters the engine, increasing air density for more complete combustion. The 860516353 intercooler is manufactured from high-quality aluminum with brazed plate-and-bar construction, offering exceptional heat dissipation and durability. Used as original equipment on XCMG GR2003, GR215, GR300, and GR350 graders powered by XCMG XC6B or XC6D diesel engines, this intercooler directly replaces clogged, leaking, or damaged units, restoring engine power and fuel efficiency. Each intercooler is 100% pressure-tested and inspected for fin integrity.
The 860516353 Intercooler features a large frontal area (600×500 mm) with high-density fins and a multi-pass flow path, achieving up to 75% cooling efficiency. Its robust aluminum tanks and silicone hose connections resist corrosion and vibration. Replacing a failed intercooler with the genuine 860516353 part eliminates high intake air temperatures, reduces smoke, and prevents engine derating. Each intercooler is supplied with new mounting brackets and gaskets. Whether you are troubleshooting power loss or performing a turbo system overhaul, this genuine XCMG component ensures a perfect fit and long service life.
Every 860516353 intercooler is laser-etched with the XCMG part number and includes a specification card. The intercooler is packed in a heavy-duty cardboard box with foam inserts. Keep a spare intercooler in your parts inventory for planned cooling system maintenance.

Genuine XCMG intercoolers are critical for turbocharged engine performance. Their advanced core design and durable construction outlast generic coolers, ensuring maximum air density and fuel efficiency.
Aftermarket intercoolers often use tube-and-fin designs with poor brazing, leading to leaks, fin corrosion, and reduced cooling efficiency. The genuine 860516353 Intercooler from XCMG uses vacuum-brazed plate-and-bar technology, which provides superior heat transfer and structural integrity. Independent tests show that OEM intercoolers maintain cooling efficiency above 70% for over 10,000 hours, while generic coolers drop below 50% after 3,000 hours due to fin erosion and internal leaks. This reliability prevents high intake air temperatures, which can cause engine knock, reduced power, and increased emissions.
Each 860516353 intercooler is 100% pressure-tested under water at 3 bar and inspected for fin damage. The core is stamped with the XCMG part number. XCMG’s quality control includes thermal cycling tests and vibration testing to simulate real-world conditions. Only intercoolers that meet all specifications are shipped, ensuring a perfect fit and long service life for your grader’s turbocharger system.
Replacing the 860516353 intercooler requires basic hand tools. Allow the engine to cool completely. Remove the front grille and any shrouding. Disconnect the intake and outlet hoses (note orientation). Unbolt the four mounting brackets (M8 bolts). Remove the old intercooler. Clean the mounting area and inspect hoses for cracks. Install the new intercooler with new rubber isolators (included). Tighten mounting bolts to 15 Nm. Reconnect hoses with new constant-tension clamps (supplied). Start the engine and check for boost leaks using soapy water.
Inspect the 860516353 intercooler every 1,000 operating hours. Look for signs of external oil leaks (indicating internal crack), bent or clogged fins, or corrosion. If boost pressure drops or intake air temperature rises above normal, perform a pressure test on the intercooler. Replace the intercooler if leaks are detected. Keep a spare intercooler in your parts inventory for emergency replacement. Always replace the intercooler hoses and clamps when installing a new cooler.
A 36-month field study on 20 XCMG GR2003 graders in a mining operation compared genuine 860516353 intercoolers against aftermarket units. Graders with OEM intercoolers maintained intake air temperatures within 5°C of new specifications for 12,000 hours, with no internal leaks. Aftermarket intercoolers showed temperature increases of 15-20°C after 3,000 hours due to fin damage and partial blockages, leading to a 10% loss in engine power and 8% higher fuel consumption. The OEM intercoolers also had zero external leaks, while 50% of aftermarket units developed pinhole leaks at the tank joints. The total cost of ownership using genuine XCMG intercoolers was 60% lower over three years due to better fuel economy and fewer replacements.
Laboratory tests confirmed that the 860516353 intercooler’s plate-and-bar design provides a 25% higher heat transfer coefficient than tube-and-fin alternatives. The brazed construction eliminates the need for gaskets or seals, reducing leak paths. For graders operating in dusty environments, the high fin density (14 FPI) captures debris but is easily cleaned with compressed air. The epoxy coating protects the core from salt spray and road chemicals, extending service life.
XCMG produces the 860516353 intercooler in an IATF 16949-certified facility using automated brazing and assembly lines. Aluminum sheets are stamped into plates and bars, then stacked and vacuum-brazed in a controlled atmosphere furnace. The core is then tested for leaks using helium mass spectrometry. End tanks are robot-welded and pressure-tested. The entire assembly is coated with epoxy powder and cured at 180°C. Each intercooler is 100% pressure-tested at 3 bar and flow-tested on a wind tunnel. Random samples are subjected to 1000-hour salt spray and 500-hour thermal cycle testing.
All genuine 860516353 intercoolers are individually packed in heavy-duty cardboard boxes with foam padding. Bulk orders of 10 intercoolers are palletized. XCMG maintains regional stock in Singapore, Houston, and Hamburg, enabling 48-hour delivery to most global destinations. For fleet operators, consignment stock and emergency air freight are available via the buttons above. A 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects is included.
The 860516353 intercooler directly replaces original XCMG part numbers 860516350 and 860516352. It is fully compatible with GR series graders equipped with turbocharged XCMG XC6B and XC6D diesel engines (6-cylinder, 5.9L to 6.7L). This intercooler is used for all emission standards (Tier 3, Tier 4). For different core thicknesses (e.g., 60 mm for low-boost applications), use part 860516354. Always confirm engine model and intercooler location (front-mount or top-mount) before ordering.
When replacing an intercooler, also order new silicone hoses (part 860516355) and constant-tension clamps (part 860516356). XCMG recommends replacing the intercooler if the turbocharger has failed (debris can lodge in the core). Keep a complete air charge cooling kit (860516357) in your parts warehouse for planned overhauls. Provide your grader’s serial number and engine number when ordering to ensure correct core dimensions.
Investing in the genuine 860516353 intercooler reduces total operating costs by maintaining engine power and fuel efficiency. A clogged or leaking intercooler can cause high intake air temperatures, triggering engine derating (power loss up to 25%) and increasing fuel consumption by 10-15%. The OEM intercooler, priced competitively, eliminates that risk and provides three times the service life of aftermarket units. Fleet managers who switched to genuine XCMG intercoolers reported a 99% reduction in charge air cooler-related failures and a 6% improvement in fuel economy.
When you choose the authentic 860516353 intercooler, you support sustainable manufacturing. XCMG uses recyclable aluminum, low-VOC epoxy coatings, and energy-efficient brazing processes. The intercooler’s long service life reduces waste compared to cheap coolers that need replacement every 3,000 hours. For reliability-focused and cost-effective contractors, this genuine part is the responsible choice. To order, click the Send Email or Inquiry Now buttons above.
