Used Truck Cargo Heating & Refrigeration, Intercoolers & Pipes

Used truck Cargo Heating & Refrigeration

Cargo Heating & Refrigeration covers parts connected with temperature control, heat transfer and supporting cooling pipework on trucks, lorries, HGVs and other commercial vehicles. On a working vehicle, temperature-related components have to cope with vibration, road dirt, salt, pressure changes, heat cycling and long operating hours. A correctly matched used OEM part can help keep the vehicle reliable without fitting an unknown pattern component that may not line up with the original pipework, brackets or mounting points.

At VRA Truckparts, this Cargo Heating & Refrigeration category is used for genuine used OEM components removed from dismantled donor trucks. Current listed items may include related cooling and heat exchange parts such as DAF XF106 and MAN TGX/TGS intercoolers, BEHR charge air coolers and MAN Euro 6 coolant pipes or water collector pipes. Examples from this section include DAF / BEHR charge air intercooler references such as 1909450, 2123370 and 2050841, MAN / BEHR intercooler references such as 51095007168, 51.09500-7168 and 51095007196, and MAN coolant pipe references such as 51063023562, 51.06302-3562, 51063030075, 51063023548 and 51.06302-3548. Stock changes as donor vehicles are dismantled, so always check the individual product listing, photos and part references before ordering.

• Associated commercial vehicle parts that may appear in this section when they relate to heating, refrigeration, heat exchange or cooling system operation.

Truck brands & typical applications

The product examples currently associated with Cargo Heating & Refrigeration are mainly for DAF and MAN heavy trucks. The DAF example is a DAF XF106 Euro 6 front charge air intercooler carrying OEM references including 1909450, 2123370 and 2050841. MAN examples include TGX and TGS Euro 6 intercoolers and coolant pipework with references such as 51095007168, 51063023562 and 51063023548. These parts are not selected by appearance alone. Workshops should match by truck make, exact model, generation, engine specification, Euro emissions standard and original part number. Similar-looking intercoolers or coolant pipes can differ in outlet angle, core size, bracket position, hose diameter or mounting layout.

• DAF XF106 Euro 6 applications may use front-mounted charge air intercoolers with DAF / BEHR identification labels.
• MAN TGX Euro 6 applications may use specific BEHR intercooler assemblies and shaped coolant pipework.
• MAN TGS Euro 6 applications can share some component families but still require part-number confirmation.
• Commercial vehicle refrigeration or cargo heating systems may require careful matching of heater, pipe, mounting and connection layout when stock is available.
• Fleet and workshop repairs should use the donor vehicle details and listing photographs to avoid ordering an incorrect variant.

Why Cargo Heating & Refrigeration matters

Truck Cargo Heating & Refrigeration components support temperature stability, engine efficiency, air charge cooling and load-area temperature control depending on the exact part fitted. An intercooler reduces charge air temperature after the turbocharger so the engine can maintain correct performance and emissions behaviour. Coolant pipes and water collector sections move coolant through the engine cooling circuit, helping to manage heat generated under load. Cargo heating or refrigeration parts, when fitted to specialist vehicles, help maintain the required environment for goods, tools, equipment or temperature-sensitive loads.

Because these systems operate under pressure and heat, small differences in design matter. A pipe that is slightly the wrong shape may place strain on hoses. An intercooler with the wrong outlet layout may not connect correctly to the charge air pipework. A mounting lug in the wrong position can cause vibration or premature failure. For trade buyers, correct matching is not just about getting the part to bolt on; it is about protecting uptime, reducing repeat labour and avoiding secondary faults caused by poor fitment.

Typical reasons to replace Cargo Heating & Refrigeration parts

Used OEM Cargo Heating & Refrigeration parts are often ordered when the original component has suffered damage, wear or leakage. The exact symptoms depend on whether the part is an intercooler, coolant pipe, heater component or refrigeration-related assembly.

• Split, leaking or pressure-damaged intercooler cores causing loss of boost pressure.
• Cracked end tanks, distorted outlets or damaged hose connection areas on charge air coolers.
• Corrosion, oxidation or surface deterioration on aluminium pipes, cooler cores or mounting faces.
• Coolant seepage from water pipes, collector sections, joints or hose seating areas.
• Blocked or contaminated fins reducing cooling efficiency after debris, dirt or road impact.
• Broken mounting points, missing brackets or damaged locating tabs caused by vibration or accident damage.
• Previous incorrect repair, unsuitable aftermarket replacement or wrong part number fitted to the vehicle.

How to choose the correct Cargo Heating & Refrigeration part

Correct identification is essential before ordering used truck Cargo Heating & Refrigeration parts. Many components look similar across model ranges but are not interchangeable. Use the information shown in each listing and compare it with the part removed from your vehicle wherever possible.

• Confirm the truck make and model, such as DAF XF106, MAN TGX or MAN TGS.
• Check the vehicle generation and Euro emissions standard, especially Euro 6 applications.
• Match the main OEM number and any alternative part references shown on the label, casting or listing.
• Compare cooler core size, pipe diameter, outlet angle and hose connection layout.
• Check mounting points, brackets, tabs and rubber mounting positions against the old component.
• Look at the donor vehicle details, engine type and any notes in the product description.
• Review all photos for visible condition, included fittings, labels and part number markings.
• For pipework, compare bends, flanges, bolt holes, sensor ports and connection ends carefully.

If you are not sure which Cargo Heating & Refrigeration item matches your vehicle, use our guide on how to find the right truck part or ask for support with compatibility and VIN checks. Part numbers are normally the strongest starting point, but photos, vehicle details and physical layout are also important, especially where multiple variants were used by the manufacturer.

Used OEM parts from dismantled trucks

VRA Truckparts specialises in used genuine OEM truck parts removed from dismantled commercial vehicles. Cargo Heating & Refrigeration items are taken from donor vehicles, photographed and listed with available reference numbers where possible. Many listings show the label, casting number or part number directly in the photos so workshops can compare details before buying. Inspection details are shown in each listing where available, and condition notes may mention normal signs of use such as surface staining, oxidation, dirt or marks from removal and storage.

Choosing a used OEM component can be a practical option when the original part number is difficult to source new, when the vehicle needs a like-for-like replacement, or when a fleet operator wants to keep repair costs sensible while retaining original fitment quality. For more information about how parts are removed and handled, see our dismantling and quality process. Always read the individual listing because included fittings, sensors, brackets and pipe sections can vary from one used part to another.

Related categories

If you are looking specifically for load-area heater parts, see the dedicated Cargo Heating subcategory. Related items may also appear elsewhere within the wider lorry and truck parts range depending on how each dismantled vehicle is processed. Because Cargo Heating & Refrigeration can overlap with engine cooling, charge air cooling and specialist body equipment, it is worth searching by OEM number as well as by component name.

Trade buyers often compare this category with engine cooling components, air intake pipework, heater-related assemblies and refrigeration vehicle fittings. If you cannot locate the exact part on the website, prepare your vehicle registration, VIN, OEM number and photos of the removed component before contacting the team. This helps narrow down whether a listed MAN TGX/TGS coolant pipe, DAF XF106 intercooler or cargo heating item is suitable for your vehicle.

Delivery, payment & returns
