Athena advantages |
|
|
Reinforced material |
Asbestos free composite raw material OE approved |
|
Stainless steel ring (AISI304) |
Separate stainless steel rings assure maximum sealing around cylinder bore also on NOS and/or turbo charged engine where boost is over 2 bars. No head and block machining required |
|
Silicon beading |
Silicon-based beading is applied on critical areas to improve sealing around all cooling water and oil passages |
