Overview

Close the gap above the bumper with this genuine Freightliner OEM front mesh grille insert. It is the lower mesh panel that fits over the hood crossbar above the front bumper on the New Cascadia, letting cooling and charge air reach the radiator and intercooler while keeping rocks, debris and large bugs out of the engine bay. Once the original is cracked, faded or missing its mounting tabs after a front strike, the panel starts flapping at highway speed and the opening it was covering starts feeding everything on the road straight into the cooling stack. We stock these right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, truck body shops, and owner-operators nationwide.

Airflow In, Road Debris Out: The Cascadia Mesh Grille Advantage

This is the factory panel, molded in thermoplastic polyolefin and finished in Volcano Gray to match the New Cascadia front end, measuring approximately 887 mm long by 95 mm wide. The mesh pattern is the point: it is open enough that the radiator and charge air cooler still get the airflow the engine was calibrated around, and tight enough that gravel and the summer bug load stop at the panel instead of packing into the cooling fins.

Because it is the OEM insert, the mounting tabs land where the hood crossbar expects them and the panel sits flat across the whole opening โ€” no zip ties, no oversized washers holding a universal screen in place. At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know a front-end repair is judged from ten feet away. This grille is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Freightliner 17-20827-000, United Pacific 42484, Wheeler Fit 1501-0048 and Dorman 242-6045.
