Find replacement cylinder head gaskets for diesel engines, construction machinery, tractors, loaders, and other equipment at Fab Heavy Parts. This cylinder head gaskets collection includes individual engine head gaskets and selected gasket sets containing cylinder head gaskets for a variety of engine applications.

Cylinder Head Gaskets for Diesel Engine Applications

A cylinder head gasket forms a seal between the engine block and cylinder head. It helps seal the combustion chambers and separate the engine's oil and coolant passages where applicable. Choosing the correct gasket is essential when repairing or rebuilding an engine.

Our collection includes cylinder head gaskets listed for applications such as:

  • Kubota: V1903, D1105, D1305, D1703, V1702, and selected V3307 engine applications.

  • Yanmar: 3TNE82, 4TNV88, 4TNE88, and selected 3TNV-series engines.

  • Cummins: Selected B3.3 and 6C 8.3L / C8.3 applications.

  • Komatsu: Selected 4D88E, 4D92, and 6D114 engine applications.

  • Mitsubishi: Selected 4D31 and 6D15-series applications.

These are examples from individual cylinder head gasket listings. Always confirm the exact engine configuration and replacement part number before ordering.

Individual Head Gaskets and Gasket Sets

Most products in this collection are listed as individual cylinder head gaskets. Selected listings also include engine gasket sets containing a head gasket and other sealing components.

If your repair only requires a replacement head gasket, check whether the product is sold individually. For more extensive repairs, review the contents of the available gasket sets and compare them with your mechanic's parts list.

You can also explore our engine gasket kits and engine overhaul kits when planning additional engine repairs.

How to Choose the Correct Cylinder Head Gasket

Start by identifying your engine manufacturer, complete engine model, and original gasket part number. Where applicable, confirm the engine serial number and any manufacturer-specified gasket thickness or identification marks.

Compare the replacement gasket's listed application with your engine's requirements. Gaskets for similar engine families may differ in bore openings, oil and coolant passages, thickness, or other design details.

Before installation, the cylinder head and engine block should be inspected according to the engine manufacturer's service instructions. Follow the specified procedures for gasket selection, surface preparation, cylinder head fasteners, and tightening requirements.

If you cannot identify the original gasket, gather your engine identification details and photos of the existing component before selecting a replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find the right cylinder head gasket for my engine?

Start with your engine manufacturer, complete engine model, and original head gasket part number. If available, also check the engine serial number. Compare the replacement cylinder head gasket listing with your engine's required gasket configuration, including any specified thickness or identification marks. Similar engine models may use different head gaskets, so the model name alone may not confirm compatibility.

Do I need an individual cylinder head gasket or a complete gasket set?

That depends on the scope of your engine repair. If you only need the cylinder head gasket, an individual replacement may be appropriate. If your repair requires additional sealing components, review the gasket sets available in our collection. Check each cylinder head gasket's included components before ordering, since a gasket set may contain more than the head gasket.

Can I use a cylinder head gasket with a different part number from my original one?

Only when the replacement relationship has been confirmed for your specific engine. Different part numbers may indicate different applications, designs, or revisions. Compare the listed references with the manufacturer's parts information and confirm the required gasket specifications. Do not assume that matching appearance or engine family guarantees interchangeability.

What should I check before installing my replacement cylinder head gasket?

Confirm that the replacement matches your engine's requirements and inspect the gasket for visible damage. Your technician should also check the cylinder head and engine block sealing surfaces and determine whether new head bolts or other components are required. Follow the engine manufacturer's service instructions for gasket orientation, fastener tightening, and installation procedures.

What should I do if my engine still overheats or loses coolant after replacing the head gasket?

Stop operating the engine if overheating or coolant loss continues. These symptoms can have several causes, including cooling-system faults, sealing problems, or damage to other engine components. Have a qualified technician inspect the engine and cooling system using the manufacturer's diagnostic procedures. A new cylinder head gasket alone does not guarantee that the underlying problem has been resolved.
