Trusted by operators in more than 60 countries, the Shacman WP12 Oil Filler Cover Assembly is a global benchmark for heavy‑duty oil fill cap reliability. Its proven design and robust construction make it a trusted component in modern commercial vehicle powertrains.
The oil filler cap is injection‑molded from high‑temperature, glass‑filled nylon, offering excellent dimensional stability and resistance to engine oil and coolant. Its knurled or ribbed grip ensures a secure, non‑slip hold even when wearing gloves.
The seal ring is made of high‑grade FKM (fluorocarbon rubber) with a temperature range of -40°C to +200°C, ensuring a tight seal even in extreme hot or cold climates. Its circular cross‑section provides low friction and excellent sealing performance, preventing oil leaks and ingress of dirt.
The cap incorporates a built‑in pressure‑relief or breather valve that maintains optimal crankcase pressure, reducing oil consumption and preventing gasket leaks. This breather feature is calibrated to open at a specific pressure, ensuring the engine operates within its designed ventilation parameters.
The assembly is supplied with a factory‑applied lubricant film on the seal ring to ease installation and prevent initial wear. The cap’s thread design ensures smooth, consistent tightening and removal without cross‑threading, even after repeated use.
Installation is straightforward: simply remove the old cap, clean the filler neck threads, and install the new assembly by hand until snug. No special tools are required. Regular inspection of the seal ring and cap for wear is recommended to maintain optimal sealing performance.
Seal ring — The sealing element that provides the primary oil‑tight barrier between the oil filler cap and the cylinder head cover. Manufactured from high‑temperature fluoroelastomer (FKM) with a precise circular cross‑section, this seal ring offers exceptional resistance to engine oil, fuel, and extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +200°C. Its resilient material conforms to minor surface imperfections, ensuring a leak‑proof seal even under high crankcase pressures and thermal cycling. The seal ring is designed for a long service life, with low compression set and excellent retention of its sealing properties over thousands of thermal cycles. It is installed in a groove within the cap or the filler neck, providing a positive, wipe‑tight seal that prevents oil mist and vapors from escaping the engine. This seal ring is critical for maintaining oil cleanliness and preventing contamination, as well as for ensuring proper crankcase pressure regulation. Its material is resistant to ozone, UV, and common engine chemicals, making it a durable and reliable component for the WP12 engine. Replacement of the seal ring is recommended whenever the cap is replaced, or at major overhauls, to maintain optimal sealing performance.
Oil Filler Cap — The main closure component that seals the oil fill port and provides a convenient access point for adding engine oil. Manufactured from high‑strength, glass‑filled nylon with a ribbed or knurled grip surface for easy, tool‑free operation. The cap incorporates a quarter‑turn or screw‑type locking mechanism that ensures a snug fit and prevents accidental loosening due to vibration. It features an integrated breather valve that regulates crankcase pressure, reducing oil consumption and preventing gasket leaks. The cap’s internal sealing surface is precision‑molded to accept the seal ring, creating a positive, leak‑tight seal. The cap is also designed with an oil‑splash baffle to minimize oil carryover into the ventilation system. Its bright orange or yellow color (common for oil caps) provides visual identification. This cap is built to withstand under‑hood temperatures up to 150°C and resists degradation from oil, fuel, and coolant. The cap is a critical component for maintaining oil cleanliness and engine performance, and its secure fitment prevents dirt and debris from entering the oil system. It is supplied as a complete unit with the seal ring pre‑installed, simplifying replacement.
