Key Features:
Fel-Pro’s PermaTorque gasket incorporates several advanced features that set it apart in durability and sealing performance:
- Designed for Imperfect Sealing Surfaces: Engineered to seal reliably even on rough or uneven surfaces common in repair scenarios.
- Multi-Layered Steel Construction: Multiple layers of stainless steel maintain consistent sealing stress and accommodate head lift during engine operation.
- Unique Combustion Seal: Specially designed to handle high cylinder pressures and dynamic head movement without failure.
- Proprietary Coating: Exclusive coating withstands rough sealing surface finishes up to 80 Ra, enhancing durability and sealing integrity.
- Precise Embossed Sealing Beads: Strategically placed beads eliminate potential leak paths at all critical areas.
Construction & Design:
The Fel-Pro PermaTorque gasket is constructed from multiple layers of high-grade stainless steel, providing exceptional strength and flexibility. This multi-layer steel (MLS) design allows the gasket to maintain a tight seal despite the thermal expansion and mechanical stresses experienced during engine operation. The proprietary coating applied to the gasket surface enhances its ability to conform to imperfect sealing surfaces, ensuring a leak-free seal even on engines with minor surface irregularities.
Additionally, the embossed sealing beads are precisely engineered to focus sealing pressure where it’s needed most, preventing combustion gases and coolant from escaping. This combination of materials and design features results in a gasket that delivers reliable performance and longevity under demanding conditions.
