What Is The Role of The Gasket

Copper-skin asbestos gasket, which has the characteristics of high pressure and high temperature resistance, is generally suitable for engine cylinder gaskets. When using it, first remove the dust and dirt on it, and pay attention to the side of its copper skin flanging toward the cylinder One side of the cover to prevent reverse air leakage.

The material of copper flat gaskets is generally made of red copper, and most of them are used in parts with high pressure, such as the gasket of the fuel injection nozzle.

Cork gaskets have certain toughness, and are generally used between the water tank, the engine oil pan and the body. The cork mat has a soft texture and good sealing performance, and can reduce vibration, collision and wear of components. The weakness is crunchy and brittle.

Asbestos gaskets have the characteristics of high temperature resistance, so the parts that use it are high temperature parts, such as between the exhaust pipe and the cylinder head. These parts cannot be replaced with other gaskets.

The rubber gasket is made of two materials, one is a gasket made of non-oil-resistant materials for sealing the air, such as the gasket used on the air filter housing; the other is oil-resistant materials for sealing oil parts Made of gaskets, such as rubber pads at both ends of diesel oil filters. It should be noted that the use of oil-resistant rubber pads can replace non-oil-resistant rubber pads, and non-oil-resistant rubber pads cannot be used instead of oil-resistant rubber pads. In the long-term use of the rubber pad, if it is found that it hardens and loses its elasticity, it should be replaced in time to avoid wearing parts.
