A valve cover gasket set typically includes all the necessary gaskets and seals required for the valve cover assembly. This comprehensive set ensures that all critical sealing components are replaced simultaneously, preventing potential leaks and ensuring the proper functioning of the engine. The inclusion of high-quality rubber valve cover gaskets in the set provides a reliable and complete sealing solution for the valve cover assembly.
Its sealing edge comes in full contact with the shaft surface in order to provide excellent sealing performance.

Also known as a Rotary Shaft Seal, Shaft Seal, Lip Seal, Elastomeric Lip Seal or any variation of these. It is a simple device for excluding dust, dirt, water or any other contaminant whilst retaining lubricant in rotary shaft equipment. Generally, it has been developed as a means of protecting the bearings of rotating shafts.
Another factor you need to consider is the type of lubricants that are more suitable for the seals. Check for the appropriate viscosity of the lubricant that’s compatible with the seal material.
