IPD
offers you a choice, multiple gasket sets for
Caterpillar engines or the exclusive IPD "1-2-3" complete
style gasket sets.
IPD
Style 1-2-3 sets offer you 3 basic options...
•
Out-of-frame
overhaul set includes the gaskets needed
to completely out-of-frame overhaul your engine.
Designated by a "1" suffix at the
end of the part number.
•
In-frame
overhaul set includes the gaskets needed
to perform an in-frame overhaul to the engine
in your equipment. Designated by a "2" suffix
at the end of the part number.
•
Multiple
cylinder head replacement set is designed
to properly install all the cylinder heads
on your engine while it is much more complete
than a simple upper set or head set that a
competitor may offer.
•
Other
optional sets include water pump rebuild
kits, water pump installation sets and single
cylinder head replacement sets.

Tensile
Strength
Tensile
strength is a measure of the materials' resistance
to blow out when used in high-pressure applications.
Creep
Relaxation Values
Creep
relaxation indicates the gasket materials
ability to maintain initial bolt torque after
exposure to stress, temperature and time.
Lower creep values indicate materials that
are better at sustaining pressure.
Cruch
Resistance Density Values
lbs./cu. FT.
Crushing
or extrusion occurs when compressive forces
exceed the point where the gasket materials
pore volume is zero. Resulting in leakage.
