23A1512710, 23A-15-12710 PISTON KOMATSU

Transmission clutch piston for Komatsu grader applications

The 23A1512710, 23A-15-12710 PISTON KOMATSU is a Komatsu power-train part used in the transmission clutch section of several motor graders. Public parts sources identify this exact number as a piston in the forward and 3rd clutch section for some machines, while other grader parts listings place the same number in the 1st and 2nd clutchsection for certain GD525A-1 serial ranges. That means the safe, evidence-based way to present it is as a Komatsu grader transmission clutch piston, with final fitment confirmed by machine model and serial number.

At 3GEN Export, we offer 23A1512710, 23A-15-12710 PISTON KOMATSU as an OEM supplier solution for heavy machinery buyers who need exact-number transmission components and fast shipment. We deliver all over the world in 5 working days.

What 23A1512710, 23A-15-12710 PISTON KOMATSU is

Public catalog and supplier pages consistently identify 23A-15-12710 as a PISTON for Komatsu graders. 3GEN listing names it more specifically as PISTON, 3RD, gives a weight of 2.800 kg, and places it in TRANSMISSION (FORWARD AND 3RD CLUTCH) for serial range #10001-10773. A GD505A-3 parts page likewise shows 23A-15-12710 in the power train transmission forward and 3rd clutch section.

At the same time, an 3GEN page for GD525A-1 S/N 60001-UP identifies the same number as PISTON, 2ND under TRANSMISSION (1ST AND 2ND CLUTCH) (#60001-60069), and another GD525A-1 transmission overview page lists 23A-15-12710 PISTON in the forward-and-3rd-clutch group for the same broader model family. This tells us the part number is firmly tied to the transmission clutch system, but clutch-position naming can vary by machine section and serial-range context.

For your product page, the strongest positioning is:

Core product identity

• Part number: 23A1512710 / 23A-15-12710
• Product name: PISTON
• Functional area: grader transmission clutch system
• Machine type: Komatsu motor grader power train part

Why this transmission piston matters

A piston inside a grader transmission clutch assembly is not a cosmetic or passive part. It is part of the mechanism that helps apply or control clutch pack movement inside the power train. The public sources place this item directly inside clutch-related transmission assemblies, which supports describing it as a working internal transmission component rather than a housing or cover piece.

From the images, the part appears as a large machined annular piston-style component with a circular body and evenly spaced mounting/port features. That geometry is consistent with a clutch piston used in a hydraulic or mechanically actuated transmission assembly. The image-based description is my interpretation, while the transmission-clutch placement is supported by the cited parts sources.

In real service conditions, a transmission clutch piston matters because the grader depends on clean clutch engagement and controlled power transfer. If a piston in the clutch section is worn, damaged, distorted, or no longer sealing and moving correctly, the transmission assembly can suffer from poor clutch application, inconsistent shifting behavior, or internal rebuild issues. That last sentence is a mechanical inference based on the documented location of the part inside clutch groups.

Weight in KG

The strongest numeric weight I found is from 3GEN:

2.800 kg.

For your listing, the best supported weight line is:

Recommended product weight: 2.8 kg.

Visual characteristics seen in the product images

From the images you provided, the part shows:

• a large circular piston body
• a wide machined contact surface
• multiple evenly spaced bolt or port holes
• a deep inner opening
• a robust metallic structure suited to internal transmission use

These are image-based observations, not factory dimensional specs.

Compatible KOMATSU models

The publicly supported model list comes from a mix of direct model pages and a 3GEN model list.

Strongest confirmed model references

• GD505A-3 , shown on a GD505A-3 page in the transmission forward and 3rd clutch section.
• GD525A-1 , shown on GD525A-1 pages in clutch-related transmission sections.
• GD511A-1
• GD521A-1
• GD521A-1E
• GD525A-1C , listed by 3GEN.net as models comprising spare part 23A-15-12710 PISTON,3RD.

Recommended customer-facing compatibility list

• Komatsu GD505A-3
• Komatsu GD511A-1
• Komatsu GD521A-1
• Komatsu GD521A-1E
• Komatsu GD525A-1
• Komatsu GD525A-1C

Important fitment note

Final compatibility should always be confirmed by:

• exact part number
• machine model
• serial number
• transmission section reference in the parts book

That caution matters here because public sources place the same number in slightly different clutch-group descriptions depending on model and serial context.

Product function and working characteristics

Because the public parts pages place 23A-15-12710 inside clutch-related transmission assemblies, the most accurate functional description is that it is a transmission clutch piston used in Komatsu grader power-train systems.

In practical service language, that means this part is important during:

• transmission overhaul
• clutch pack rebuilding
• internal gearbox inspection
• grader power-train repair

Those are reasonable service-use inferences from the documented transmission placement and the piston design visible in the images.

For your buyers, the real value of this product page is exact-number clarity. A part like this is rarely bought casually. The buyer usually already has the number from a dismantled assembly, parts list, or workshop requirement. That is why the page should emphasize the exact OEM number, supported models, supported weight, and transmission-clutch application without overclaiming unsupported specs.

Key benefits of 23A1512710, 23A-15-12710 PISTON KOMATSU

Supports grader transmission repair

Public sources place the part directly in clutch sections of the transmission, so it is clearly relevant to gearbox and power-train service.

Useful for clutch assembly rebuilds

Because the part is listed inside forward/3rd and 1st/2nd clutch groups, it is especially relevant for internal transmission rebuild work.

Exact-number sourcing

Using both 23A1512710 and 23A-15-12710 helps buyers find the correct part quickly from invoices, manuals, or warehouse records.

Strong grader fitment coverage

The public model references span multiple Komatsu grader families, especially GD505, GD511, GD521, and GD525 variants.

Common reasons for replacement

The public sources do not list explicit failure modes, so the following are mechanical inferences, not quoted catalog claims:

• wear during transmission overhaul
• damage found after gearbox disassembly
• clutch rebuild requirements
• distortion or sealing issues in the clutch piston area
• preventive replacement during power-train service

These are reasonable because the part is documented as a transmission clutch piston.
