Description
You’ve probably noticed that familiar ticking noise from the engine compartment when your tractor’s running—sounds like a diesel knock, but it’s actually exhaust gases leaking out where the manifold meets the cylinder head. This exhaust manifold gasket creates the critical seal between the manifold and cylinder head on Perkins diesel engines, keeping those hot gases where they belong and your engine running the way it should.
What You’re Getting
- Heat-resistant materials designed to handle the thermal cycling and high pressures of diesel operation without breaking down
- Direct replacement that fits the original bolt pattern—no modifications needed
- Quality construction that maintains its seal through thousands of heat cycles, keeping your engine running smooth
- Proper thickness to ensure even clamping pressure across all mounting surfaces
Built for Real Farm Work
This gasket fits Massey Ferguson tractors equipped with Perkins A4.212, A4.236, and A4.248 engines across the 100, 200, 500, and 600 series, including versatile models that serve in field cultivation, livestock management, hay production, and general farm work. Whether you’re running a mid-size 265 for loader work or a bigger 690 for field operations, this is the same gasket that came on your tractor from the factory.
Made to Last
These gaskets are built to handle the constant heating and cooling cycles that would crack inferior materials, with construction that matches OEM specifications. Farm equipment takes a beating, and exhaust components see some of the harshest conditions—extreme heat, vibration, and temperature swings that would destroy cheap gaskets in short order.
Installation Notes
You’ll need to remove the air cleaner, disconnect the exhaust pipe, and unbolt the manifold—not terrible on these tractors since everything’s pretty accessible, but clean both surfaces thoroughly since any old gasket material or dirt will cause leaks. While you’re in there, check your manifold for cracks—they sometimes develop over time. Take your time with the cleanup—a good seal here prevents exhaust leaks that rob power and create noise.
