Advantages of Fel pro
- The brand continues to be the top as its engineers are constantly working hard on developing Newfangled sealing systems, problem-solving techniques and other latest innovations. These innovations are applied in such a way that they lodge changes wherever and whenever needed. They are mainly meant for repairs. Gasket kit - The gasket kit developed by Fel Pro is made of multi-layer steel with the recent important edge expertise and anti-leak seal.The surface nature is important. If the surface is too smooth, there would be excessive lateral motion, or if it is very rough, it will result in small leakage. - To know if the surfaces are perfect and flat during operation, the used gaskets can "mapped". In order to maintain constant touch between the head and block, it is very essential to check if the surface remains flat after the fasteners are torqued. If they are uniformly pressed, the head and block will definitely stay flat throughout the whole engineering process. As a result, cylinder bore is minimised, thus bringing more power. Seal failures - In case of Fel Pro head gaskets, there is minimal chances of seal failures as coolant flows at the time of excessive heat. Fel Pro makes use of very effective and powerful water pump with high speed which, at the same time, restricts the coolant flow out of the engine. They are against the usage of electrical water pumps as they do not flow enough cooling agent to reduce the heat. Unceasing leaks from valve, oil pan, rear cover is indeed a headache for motorists and technicians as leakage are problematic from ages to ages intrinsically.
The types of gaskets
Fel Pro air cleaner gasket is made up of thick steel core with a diameter of
32 inches. It costs $15.99. Fel Pro carburettor gasket looks like a basket and its costs starts from $2.99. There is also Fel Pro collector gaskets.
It is designed in such a way that it is attached to both sides of perforated steel core. The speciality is that it avoids blow out and burn out even at high temperatures. There is non-stick coating which allows free motion and doesn't cause damage to the gasket itself. It costs $18.
