MAHLE Clevite Inc. recently introduced
new Victor Reinz Multi-Layered Steel (MLS) cylinder head gaskets. These new
gaskets are now available for Ford 6.0L and 6.4L Power Stroke engines.
The new Victor Reinz head gaskets with
advanced Black Diamond coating technology are constructed of five stainless
steel layers, utilizing Dana’s patented integrated push rod locators and are
coated with a Victor Reinz proprietary fluoroelastomer (rubber) coating.
According to MAHLE Clevite, the new coating seals and impregnates into the
mating component surface where it decreases friction forces, and allows
controlled sliding of the mating components relative to the gasket without
fretting or damage to aluminum engine components.
“MAHLE Clevite is all about continuous
improvement and has refined its engine cylinder head gasket for increased
performance and durability in a very demanding application,” said Duane Bethke,
team coordinator II Gaskets, MAHLE Clevite Inc. “The new Black Diamond
coating is soft enough for cold sealing and features maximum adhesion, increased
durability and temperature resistance, and is also resistant to engine fluids
including gas, oil and coolant. Victor Reinz gaskets with Black Diamond coating
are well-suited for Ford 6.0L and 6.4L Power Stroke engines.”
