Key Features:

Cometic’s Fiber Valve Cover Gasket combines advanced materials and design to outperform traditional gaskets. Key features include:

• Soft durometer rubber wrapped around a steel torque limiting frame for enhanced durability
• Superior sealing capability that resists oil leaks even under high vacuum and pressure conditions
• Steel frame prevents gasket blowout and damage from over-tightening
• Extended reusability compared to cork or paper gaskets, reducing maintenance costs

• Thickness of .047 inches ensures a reliable seal without compromising installation ease
• Resistant to heat, oil, and chemical exposure commonly encountered in engine environments

Construction & Design:

The gasket features a unique combination of a soft rubber compound bonded to a steel torque limiting frame. This construction allows the gasket to flex and conform to the valve cover and cylinder head surfaces while maintaining structural integrity. The steel frame acts as a safeguard against over-tightening, preventing gasket deformation and blowouts that can lead to leaks.

Unlike traditional cork or paper gaskets, the fiber and steel design provides enhanced resistance to engine heat cycles, oil exposure, and vacuum pressures. This ensures a consistent seal over extended periods, making it ideal for both daily drivers and performance vehicles.

Installation & Fitment:

Installation is straightforward and designed to fit factory specifications for the listed Jeep and Dodge models. The gasket installs directly onto the valve cover, requiring no modifications or special tools. Its precise dimensions and durable materials help ensure a proper seal on reassembly, reducing the risk of leaks caused by improper installation.
