CanadaInside the Problem
On some vehicles, there are parts like the oil pan and timing cover that come from the factory sealed with RTV rather than a gasket. When it’s time to perform a repair, it can be time consuming and problematic to remove the old RTV and replace it with new RTV. To solve this problem, the engineers at Fel-Pro® went to work on an alternative to using RTV to seal the oil pan and timing cover. The result? A better way to seal these critical parts on select applications.
The Solution: Fel-Pro PermaDryPlus® with SpeedFit™ Technology
Fel-Pro continues its problem-solving tradition with its new PermaDryPlus gaskets with SpeedFit technology. This innovative gasket allows the use of a gasket where RTV is currently the only alternative to re-seal. Installation is a snap, just:
Install It
Torque It
Move on to the next job
Goes on Clean, Installs in seconds
Installing a Fel-Pro PermaDryPlus gasket with SpeedFit technology rather than using RTV is a better way to seal an oil pan or timing cover. Designed to go on clean and install in seconds, these gaskets are engineered and manufactured specifically for the repair environment to help seal imperfect sealing surfaces.
Replaces RTV
Gasket replaces the RTV that originally sealed the timing cover or oil pan gasket, removing chances of missed spots, leak paths, too little or too much RTV, or smudges during tight installations.
Easier and Faster Install
Using a gasket simplifies the installation process with no waiting for the RTV to set up and cure
Strong and Durable
Rigid carrier construction and silicone sealing beads ensure a long-lasting seal.
Superior Seal
Features application-specific sealing beads help eliminate leak paths, especially in problem corner areas.
Designed for Imperfect Sealing Surfaces
Engineered and manufactured specifically for the repair environment to help seal imperfect sealing surfaces.
Compatibility
Using a Fel-Pro gasket means that you don’t have to worry that the RTV you’re using may not be compatible with the engine oil.
Ease of Removal
For the next service/repair, a gasket is easier to remove than RTV. You won’t spend time cleaning RTV form the parts and won’t have to worry about getting dried RTV particles into other parts.
