Description
When you start hearing that telltale ticking sound that speeds up with your engine RPM or catch a whiff of exhaust fumes in the cab, it’s time to replace your exhaust manifold gasket. This small but critical part creates the seal between your tractor’s exhaust manifold and cylinder head, keeping those hot gases flowing where they should instead of leaking out around the connection.
What You’re Getting
- Heat-resistant material that handles the extreme temperatures from diesel exhaust without burning out or cracking
- Precision-cut design ensures a proper fit against both the manifold and cylinder head surfaces
- Durable construction that maintains its sealing properties through the thermal cycling of cold starts and hot operation
- Direct replacement that fits without modifications or adapters
Built for Real Farm Work
This gasket fits both the 5400 series utility tractors and the bigger 6400 series models – machines that work hard in demanding conditions. Whether you’re running a 5435 on loader duty, pulling implements with a 6470, or spending long days on the PTO with a 6490, your engine generates serious heat and pressure that demands a reliable exhaust seal.
Made to Last
Farm equipment takes a beating, and exhaust gaskets are no exception. This one’s built from materials that can handle the extreme heat cycling between cold morning starts and full-power operation without the cracking or blowout that happens with inferior gaskets. It maintains proper sealing even under the high exhaust pressures that these engines create.
Installation Notes
Let your engine cool completely before starting work to avoid burns from hot components. Clean both the manifold and cylinder head surfaces thoroughly, removing all traces of old gasket material – any residue left behind will cause leaks with the new gasket. Always use new gaskets when doing manifold work since they’re not reusable once removed.
