ATHENA Cooper Ring Gasket Features For specific high horsepower applications. engine performance can be significantly improved by using Athena Cooper Ring gaskets. that are supplied with Stainless steel rings. This technology outperforms conventional fire ring solutions. Reinforced material M0115 (see features below): asbestos free composite raw material OE approved. Properties Motorgasket M0115 has a good mechanical and thermal stress. conforms well to sealing faces. Motorgasket M0115 is resistant to oils, fuels, mixtures of water and antifreeze or corrosion inhibitors. Stainless steel ring (AISI 304) separate stainless steel rings assure maximum sealing around cylinder bore also on NOS and/or Turbo Chargers engines where boost is over 2 bars. No head and block machining required. Silicon beading: Silicon-based beading is applied on critical areas to improve sealing around all cooling water and oil passages. Surfaces Colored: Grey Treatment: For stressed application special coatings are applied. e.g. a PTFE anti-stick coating or a special silicon coating which improves micro-sealing and silicon beading. Cooper Ring Gasket General Installation Notes Be sure the engravings of the ring are placed facing the engine head. Cooper Ring Manufacturing Process for Ring Gasket Pressing Process: Each gasket is pressed to reach the perfect flatness according to the required tolerances. Silicon Beading: This working process adds a silicon bead over specific gasket areas to increase sealing around liquid passages (water and oil). Finishing: The application of different superficial coatings enables the gasket to better performance. prevent sticking phenomena and enhance high temperature resistance. Cooper Ring Assembling: Each gasket supplied with steel ring is manually refined to guarantee perfect cooper ring installation. Athena Gasket: High Performance Cooper ring Insert For specific very high horsepower applications. a conventional or MLS Head Gasket can be significantly improved utilizing a different sealing system for the combustion area. Athena utilizes a proprietary INOX steel fire ring which offers improved sealing technologies over copper and conventional fire rings. This solution dramatically increases the cylinder head gasket resistance to extreme
