Caterpillar Radiator Water Line Gasket, 1.2 mm Thick 4N-1156

Description

The Radiator Water Line Gasket contains the components to seal the cooling system’s mating surfaces.

HOW IT WORKS

Gaskets are made of paper, steel, rubber, cork, composite fibers, graphite, etc. They sit between flat, mating surfaces. The gasket material’s flexibility allows it to fill the areas between the surfaces that do not match perfectly.

WHY IT MATTERS

The gasket is essential in preventing leaks. It is also necessary as a safety device as the gasket’s failure can often be a symptom of something else the operator may want to investigate. Gaskets are key to the proper operation of your engine.
