Overview
The ZF 2094.247.036 TUBE is a critical hydraulic fluid conduit engineered for the internal lubrication and cooling circuits of heavy-duty ZF powershift transmissions. This OEM genuine part directs pressurized oil to the clutch packs and planetary gear sets, ensuring consistent thermal regulation and friction surface protection. The SKU 2094.247.036 is precision-machined to maintain exact flow rates, preventing pressure drops that compromise shift quality. It is mounted within the transmission valve body area, connecting directly to the 2094101012: TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the 2094301036: HOUSING assembly. Without this tube, the transmission cannot sustain proper hydraulic balance, leading to rapid component wear.
Symptoms of Failure
- External hydraulic oil seepage at tube joints: Cracks or corrosion in the 2094.247.036 tube cause visible fluid drips near the bell housing, often mistaken for a main seal leak.
- Erratic gear engagement under load: A restricted or fractured tube starves clutches of oil, producing delayed or harsh shifts during excavation or grading operations.
- Elevated transmission operating temperature: Insufficient oil flow through a damaged tube reduces cooling capacity, triggering over-temperature warnings on construction machinery dashboards.
- Whining noise from the transmission pump: Air ingestion from a cracked tube creates cavitation sounds, especially at idle or during cold starts.

Compatibility
This tube is primarily used in ZF WG180, WG200, and WG211 series powershift transmissions found in wheel loaders, telehandlers, and graders. It also fits select WG310 models with the same hydraulic routing architecture. The 2094.247.036 tube interfaces with the 2094298057: HOUSING and the 2094301071: COVER to form a sealed oil gallery. Always verify your transmission serial number against ZF parts catalogs before ordering.
