Marine Exhaust Gaskets

The exhaust system of your boat must be properly sealed to keep the hot gases and cooling water in their respective chambers. Needless to say, exhaust parts live in harsh environments, subjected to corrosive substances and extremely high temperatures. As an example, on boats operated in saltwater, rust could eat into the inner wall in as little as three years. Gaskets live in the same tough conditions. The importance of the integrity of the seal at all junctures cannot be stressed enough. A failed gasket between the manifold and riser may let water seep into the engine causing massive and sometimes irreparable damage to the valves, cylinders, piston rings, etc.

Make sure to use new gaskets every time you reinstall manifolds, elbows, etc. Given how important the seals are for the performance of the exhaust system and the lifespan of the motor, only high-quality components should be used. The marine exhaust gaskets on offer are designed to provide reliable sealing in severe conditions, such as freshwater and saltwater, temperature extremes, high velocities, etc. They match OE gaskets in fit, function, and durability.
