Gasket

Automotive gaskets are important parts used for sealing between engine, transmission, exhaust systems and many other components.

1. Material: The gasket material is usually selected according to the engine operating conditions and sealing requirements. Commonly used materials include metal, paper, rubber, and metal-paper composites.

2. Sealing Capabilities: The main function of automotive gaskets is to provide sealing. It must have an effective sealing ability to prevent leakage of engine oil, coolant, exhaust gas, and other liquids or gases.

3. Temperature Resistance: The engine and other automotive systems may be exposed to high temperatures. Therefore, it is important for gaskets to be resistant to temperature changes.

4. Pressure and load capacity: Gaskets must be able to withstand the pressure within the engine and the load from moving parts.

5. Chemical resistance: Seals must be resistant to the effects of the fluids and chemicals used.

6. Oil and Fluid Resistance: Oil and fluid resistance is important for gaskets to perform effectively when in contact with engine oil, coolant, and other fluids.
