O-RING NBR70 TP2425 ATHENA for Suzuki 250 RM 1996-2000

The head gasket is a technological, complex and fundamental component. To meet the continuous needs of the market, Athena subjects the head gaskets to intense control tests, both during the design phase and during bench tests. The Athena head gasket can be produced using different technologies, for example metal/elastomer combinations or multilayer with steel materials and Athena coating. Choosing an excellent quality gasket is the first step towards the reliability of your engine.
Depending on the type, it is subjected to:
1. High precision cutting
Through latest generation lasers it is possible to obtain a high degree of precision and purity of the cut, totally eliminating production burrs. These can in fact cause infiltration of various elements (oil, water, compression gas), compromising the functioning of the engine.
2. Relief alignment
This solution increases the elasticity of the gasket during operation, ensuring excellent sealing over time, even in extreme conditions. On the contrary, a misalignment of the slats would cause an immediate flattening of the seal, eliminating the elastic memory function and the consequent loss of compression.
