FEL-PRO 3060 Gasket Making Material

This is a good variety of gasket material if you make your own gaskets.

I bought this because I couldn't find a gasket somewhere on a gas golf cart, but I've used pieces for a few projects since then. It all comes in handy for all kinds of projects! I love the versatility of having a blank canvas to work from. I just wish they labeled each material so I know what to use it for. There is a chart that shows which will work well with certain applications, but I don't know which material is which, other than the cork.

If you've ever worked on a vintage British car, you know that our friends across the Atlantic hadn't really discovered a way to keep fluids on the inside where they belongs. I'm not sure what they make seals and gaskets out of but the cars tend to mark their territory.I was helping a friend work on his Triumph. It's an unrestored survivor and it's had a lot of "mechanics" work on it over the years. As a result, it's a bit of a hodge-podge of repairs and parts that have been made to fit.Whatever I was doing to this car at the time required a gasket that I could not find anywhere. I forget the details but an earlier part had been made to fit and I couldn't find an off-the-shelf gasket that would seal it. I'm sure it's out there, but I couldn't find the right combination of keywords and model years to find it. In the interest of keeping another old car on the road, I ordered this kit and made my own gasket.I cut the gasket out of a sheet of cork material with a pair of scissors, then used hole punches and a utility knife to add screw holes and internal passages. It only took a few minutes and when I was done I had a gasket that didn't leak. It's been 8 years or so and it seems like everything else on the car besides this gasket is seeping.This is the kind of kit you want in your garage when something breaks on a Saturday afternoon and nobody will have a gasket for you until Monday. You now have the option of making your own and getting on with your life instead of fuming for 2 days.

Seems to be made well and I expect all to work as intended.

I despise peep chamber gaskets. Making your own is better having this on hand to trace ones that poor quality and make your own this is a must have and every man's toolkit save the Day more than once

I bought this gasket set to make some new gaskets for my gas scooter engine which I was rebuilding. I also used the thicker included cork gasket sheet to make a replacement foot for my IBM PC XT. These gasket sheets are of uniform thickness, are pretty easy to cut to size and are priced well.

Great gasket material. Not rolled. Good and flat.

Good quality, decent price.
