The intake manifold gasket is a seal that is installed between the intake manifold and the cylinder head. The part is produced in the form of interconnected rings that are put on the cylinder block. Prevents exhaust gases from entering the engine compartment of the machine. The serviceability of the collector itself is extremely important for the operation of the entire engine and, perhaps, the gasket is the weakest link of the entire unit.

The material of the ELRING brand Gasket, intake manifold housing

It is made of various materials: cork, cardboard, paronite, fiber, asbestos-free paper, tinplate, and even metal stamping. For improved insulating properties, an additional sealant can be used. They can be produced with or without edging, with or without lining.

The reasons for replacing this consumable may be as follows:

1. car operation in difficult conditions, frequent temperature drops;
2. increased vibrations when driving a car;
3. initially low quality of the gasket;
4. frequent thermal expansion and contraction of the metal.
