INA Hydraulic Valve Tappet Lifter

INA hydraulic valve tappets (also called hydraulic valve lifters or hydraulic lash adjusters) transfer camshaft motion to the valve train. They automatically take up valve lash, which helps keep valve operation quiet and consistent. INA is a precision engine component specialist and a long-standing original equipment supplier to automakers. These lifters are made to OE-level quality for engine rebuilds and repairs.

Key Features:

• Hydraulic lash compensation: automatically adjusts for thermal expansion and wear, so no manual valve lash adjustment is needed.
• Precision manufacturing: tight tolerances and a finished contact surface support smooth, reliable operation.
• Durable construction: hardened materials resist wear under constant cam loading.
• Quiet running: proper oil-filled operation helps reduce valve train noise and tapping.
• OE-quality design: built to the performance standards expected of original equipment components.

Replacing worn or noisy lifters helps restore smooth idle, consistent engine performance and normal valve train operation. Replacing the lifters whenever the camshaft is replaced, and using clean engine oil, helps protect the valve train and extend service life.
