Oil Pan Gasket
Detroit Diesel

Sealing pan joint is constructed from EPDM synthetic rubber, offering reliable resistance to engine oil, heat, and the repetitive thermal cycles typical of heavy-duty operation. The material choice provides excellent elasticity to maintain a tight seal over time, reducing the risk of seepage during high-velocity oil flow or elevated temperatures. VMRS code 045-013-003 identifies this pan seal within the lubrication subsystem, ensuring consistent maintenance and replacement practices. In service, the EPDM-based seal contributes to oil containment, cleaner crankcase environments, and reduced maintenance downtime by minimizing leakage at the pan interface. Proper installation involves preparing clean, flat mating surfaces and ensuring even seating to prevent distortion. This part supports oil system integrity in on-road and off-road applications and helps extend the life of surrounding components by maintaining proper lubrication and containment.
