The cylinder block gaskets perform quite important functions. In particular, this applies to the reliable isolation of cooling and the removal of flue gases. It should be noted that this device becomes unusable after some time, as a result of which it is necessary to urgently replace it.

The set of gaskets includes gaskets and seals related to the cylinder head, as well as components and assemblies attached to it. Typically, a head gasket is included in the top gasket set. An exception is made in some cases when the engine design provides for the selection of the block head gasket by thickness (for example, for diesel engines).

The principles of the gasket set usage

The heads are connected to the blocks using special bolts, which, despite the high level of strength and reliability, do not always guarantee excellent tightness. In this regard, it is necessary to use a high-quality gasket that can simultaneously cope with all assigned functions. In order for the ELRING brand Gasket Set, cylinder head to really turn out to be a reliable salvation at the right time, it must necessarily be resistant to corrosion processes, temperature extremes and high pressure, as well as have a long operating period.
