Abstract: A flat gasket has a functional layer with at least one media through-opening and at least one combustion chamber through-opening. A second layer, which is separate from the functional layer. The second layer has a media through-opening that corresponds to the media through-opening in the functional layer and a combustion chamber through-opening that corresponds to the combustion chamber through-opening in the functional layer. The functional layer has at least one combustion chamber sealing bead, which is preferably a full bead, for each combustion chamber through-opening. The second layer has an outer boundary sealing bead and an elastomer sealing profile for each media through-opening.

Abstract: The invention relates to a flat gasket, comprising a functional layer having at least one media through-opening and at least one combustion chamber through-opening; and a second layer, which is separate from the functional layer and has a media through-opening(s) that corresponds to the media through-opening(s) in the functional layer and a combustion chamber through-opening(s) that corresponds to the combustion chamber through-opening(s) in the functional layer; wherein the functional layer has at least one combustion chamber sealing bead, which is preferably a full bead, for each combustion chamber through-opening; and wherein the second layer has an outer boundary sealing bead and an elastomer sealing profile for each media through-opening.

Abstract: A gasket for sealing off between two components of the exhaust line of a combustion engine includes an upper spring-elastic metal layer, a lower spring-elastic metal layer and an insert which is arranged between the upper and the lower metal layer. The gasket has at least one through-opening, and the upper and the lower layer on the sealing surface each have at least one bead which surrounds the at least one though-opening. The upper and the lower metal layers in the region adjoining the at least one through-opening are positively or materially interconnected.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a flat gasket with a stopper function layer, particularly for use in internal combustion engines as a cylinder head gasket, a gasket in the area of the exhaust gas supply or exhaust gas discharge of turbochargers or a gasket in the area of the exhaust gas recirculation, wherein the flat gasket features at least one upstream bead relative to its sealing function with respect to a stopper.

Abstract: A gasket for installation between components, that under operating conditions are subjected to temperature-dependent relative motions, in particular a cylinder head gasket for an internal combustion engine, built from multiple individual seal packets, of which a least one is assigned to each component and that at least under operating conditions a gliding relative motion is given solely between contact surfaces of the individual seal packets.

Abstract: A metal-elastomer cylinder head gasket has, in addition to one or more sealing layers made of metal, at least one combustion chamber seal and an elastomer seal which runs around the combustion chamber seal. Through ducts which are arranged in the plane of the cylinder head gasket, I addition, for example in the case of the engine block being filled with cooling fluid, a degassing is made possible, so that a discharging of air and/or gas remaining in the system is made possible into a fluid passage by means of the ducts.

Abstract: A flat metal gasket includes exterior and interior metal gasket parts formed with a gap therebetween and in which elastomeric material is introduced to bridge the parts and form a seal therebetween. The elastomeric material can be formed with one or more media flow openings.

Abstract: A gasket for installation between components, that under operating conditions are subjected to temperature-dependent relative motions, in particular a cylinder head gasket for an internal combustion engine, built from multiple individual seal packets, of which a least one is assigned to each component and that at least under operating conditions a gliding relative motion is given solely between contact surfaces of the individual seal packets.

Abstract: A cylinder head gasket includes a metal gasket plate; a lubricant aperture provided in the plate for serving as a passage for a lubricant; a lubricant aperture seal surrounding the lubricant aperture and being of a lubricant-resistant material; a coolant aperture provided in the plate for serving as a passage for a coolant; a coolant aperture seal surrounding the coolant aperture and being of a coolant-resistant material; and a single coupling agent coating provided on the plate. The coupling agent coating is of a material which bonds the lubricant aperture seal and the coolant aperture seal to the plate.
