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 sealing pressure even under the stress of thermal expansion and head lift. The proprietary NextGen coating enhances durability by resisting high temperatures and corrosion, while the LaserWeld stopper layer technology reinforces the combustion seal to prevent blowouts. This combination of materials and engineering ensures a robust, long-lasting seal that performs reliably in real-world repair environments.
