Fel-Pro BMW X5 26620 PT PermaTorque Engine Cylinder Head Gasket

When you're rebuilding the top end of your 2002 or 2003 BMW X5, a solid head gasket is crucial for keeping everything sealed up tight. This PermaTorque head gasket from Fel-Pro is specifically made for the realities of engine repair, meaning it's built to handle those less-than-perfect sealing surfaces you sometimes find.

What makes this gasket stand out is its multi-layered steel construction. This design helps it maintain sealing pressure even when the cylinder head experiences some lift, which can happen under high cylinder pressures. It also features a unique combustion seal that's designed to handle those pressures and the movement that comes with them. Plus, Fel-Pro applies a proprietary coating that helps it seal well even on rougher surface finishes, giving you confidence in the seal.

You'll find precise embossed sealing beads around all the important areas. These beads are key to preventing leaks, ensuring that combustion gases and coolant stay where they belong. It's a well-built part designed to get your engine running right.
