Gasket, cylinder head

This cylinder head gasket serves as the essential seal between the engine block and the cylinder head. Its primary purpose is to close off the combustion chamber and ensure that compression remains contained within the cylinders. We offer this product from Victor Reinz, a manufacturer that produces components designed to withstand the high pressures and temperatures found in modern engines.

The technical specifications of this gasket are precise. It features a thickness of 1.25 mm and is marked with 5 notches or teeth for visual identification. This component is specifically engineered for engines where the piston protrusion measures between 1.035 mm and 1.084 mm, particularly for setups involving steel pistons. You must ensure these dimensions match your engine exactly, as this part is suitable for vehicles produced up to January 2018.

Functionally, this gasket plays a vital role in your vehicle's health. By blocking the flow of liquids and gases effectively, it prevents oil and coolant from mixing, which could otherwise lead to severe engine failure. A reliable seal protects the fuel system and cooling system from contamination.
