Figure 3: Sealing function of main lip radial load
* KOYO is a registered trademark of JTEKT.- The primary function of the valve cover gasket is to create a seal between the valve cover and the engine block. This seal prevents oil from leaking out of the engine's main gallery and into the combustion chamber. The gasket also prevents coolant from entering the engine oil, which can cause oil to thicken and lose its lubricating properties.
What is an Oil Seal?
If these specific tools aren’t available, it’s entirely possible to correctly seat an oil seal in its housing using a hammer. Ideally, this hammer will be plastic or rubber due to it’s more forgiving nature. Using this and a strike plate that covers the entire seal will lend you accuracy while driving it in. The downside to this method is the inability to drive the seal any further than the strike plate will allow.
- In addition to their heat resistance, silicone rubber gaskets are also highly flexible. This flexibility allows them to conform to irregular surfaces, ensuring a tight and effective seal. This makes silicone rubber gaskets an ideal choice for applications where the sealing surface may not be perfectly smooth or flat, such as in pipe connections, flanges, and equipment covers.
