EMC gaskets are available with combinations of properties to address virtually any application. Metal finger stock made from beryllium-copper (BeCu) or stainless steel (Figure 1) is a very effective, ...

Electrically conductive form-in-place (FIP) gaskets are used as part of a flexible EMI gasketing solution for a wide range of electronic products. Many applications involve complex gasket geometry, ...

Gaskets. At a glance they seem unimportant, yet without them, fluids would leak from every joint, fuel would spew, and flaming gases would explode from every crevice once the spark plug flashed.

Whether you're making some stunning numbers with the help of a big-inch small-block, nitrous, or forced induction, higher cylinder pressure demands that the head gaskets are up to the task, or else ...

The Chevrolet small-block engine was a brilliant piece of engineering, attested by the fact that well over 100,000,000 have been built. However the first generation was not as oil-tight as later ...
