Gasket, cylinder head

This cylinder head gasket serves as a critical seal between the engine block and the cylinder head. Its primary purpose is to close off the combustion chamber and ensure that oil and coolant channels remain separate. We offer this specific component from Victor Reinz, a brand that produces various sealing solutions for the automotive industry.

The gasket features Multi Layer Steel (MLS) construction for durability under pressure. It has a specific thickness of 1.63 mm and is identified by a 2 hole marking. You should select this part if your engine requires a gasket for a piston protrusion ranging from 1.01 mm to 1.10 mm. These dimensions are essential for maintaining the correct compression ratio and preventing mechanical interference inside the cylinder.

By creating a reliable barrier, this component blocks the unintended flow of liquids and gases. A secure seal prevents leaks that could otherwise cause significant damage to the engine, cooling system, or fuel system. When performing properly, it ensures that your vehicle operates efficiently without loss of compression or fluid contamination.

This part is listed under supplier code 61-10140-10. It is compatible with a broad range of Volkswagen vehicles. The application list includes the VW Transporter T5 and T6 series, the VW Crafter, and the VW Amarok. Since cylinder head gaskets come in various thicknesses based on piston height, you must verify that the 1.63 mm specification matches your repair needs.
