What is the purpose of a head gasket?

A head gasket seals the space between your engine's cylinder head and the engine block. It prevents combustion gases from escaping and keeps oil and coolant from mixing.

Why would I choose a 1.2mm head gasket?

A 1.2mm gasket is often used for mild performance upgrades or to compensate for material removed from the cylinder head during resurfacing. It's a common thickness that balances sealing performance with engine assembly requirements.

What does the 'bead' design mean for this gasket?

The bead design refers to a raised sealing ring around the combustion chamber. This bead helps create a more concentrated pressure point, leading to a stronger and more reliable seal under the high pressures found in an engine.

About this part

Product Details

HKS is well-known for making performance parts for Japanese vehicles. This 1.2mm bead head gasket is designed for the 1987-1992 Toyota Supra MK3. A head gasket is critical for sealing the combustion chamber, oil passages, and coolant passages between the cylinder head and the engine block. If yours is leaking, it can cause serious engine problems.

This gasket features a 1.2mm thickness, which is a common choice for mild performance builds or when resurfacing the head has removed material. The bead design helps create a strong seal under pressure, which is important for keeping combustion gases contained and preventing coolant or oil leaks. It's a well-built component that aims to keep your engine running smoothly.
