2021-06-19

The gasket in the automobile engine is called the cylinder head gasket, also called the cylinder liner, located between the cylinder head and the cylinder block.
The function of the cylinder gasket is to fill the microscopic pores between the cylinder block and the cylinder head, to ensure good sealing at the joint surface, to ensure the sealing of the combustion chamber, to prevent cylinder air leakage and water jacket leakage, and to maintain the flow from the body to the cylinder head. The coolant and oil do not leak.

According to different materials, cylinder gasket can be divided into metal asbestos gasket, metal composite gasket and all-metal gaskets.
