Fel-Pro Ford Escape 26212 PT PermaTorque Engine Cylinder Head Gasket

Fel-Pro is known for making gaskets that work well in real-world repair situations, and this PermaTorque head gasket is no exception. It’s built to handle engines where the sealing surfaces might not be perfectly smooth, which can happen during a repair. This gasket is designed to create a reliable seal, even when dealing with the pressures and movements common in engines.

This head gasket uses a multi-layered steel construction. This design helps it maintain sealing pressure and adapt to any slight movement or lift in the cylinder head. It also features a unique combustion seal that can handle high cylinder pressures. Plus, it has a special coating that helps it seal well even on rougher surfaces, up to 80 Ra, making it a solid option for many Ford Escape models from 2005-2009, as well as other vehicles like the Mazda 6 and Mercury Mariner.

When you're replacing a head gasket, getting a good seal is critical for the engine's performance and longevity. This gasket is made with precise embossed sealing beads in key areas to prevent leaks, ensuring your engine runs smoothly after the repair.
