Polyacrylate is a great compromise between cost and quality. It has a high performing temperature and chemical range, but not to the extent of the range of Viton. The temperature ranges from 31°C to 148°C (-25°F to 300°F). Polyacrylate is primarily used in automotive transmissions and hoses but also found in shaft seals, gaskets and o-rings, due to offering a high resistance to hot oil and oxidation. While Polyacrylate is a great alternative to other high temperature resistant materials that are more expensive, it does have a poor water compatibility and cold flexibility. The best situation for Polyacrylate is an environment where heat and oil resistance but cost is the major issue. And while these 4 different materials cover a wide range of applications, there are even more materials out there designed for very specific niches in mind.

E3 2012 was a groundbreaking year for the world of technology and automobiles, particularly with the introduction of the Spark Plug. This innovative component revolutionized the way engines functioned, showcasing the potential of advanced engineering in everyday devices. A valve cover gasket, whether it's at the front or rear, serves as a barrier, maintaining the integrity of the engine's oil system. It seals the space where the valves, rocker arms, and pushrods operate, keeping oil from seeping out and contaminants from creeping in. The rear valve cover gasket, specifically, is situated behind the cylinder head, typically in engines with overhead valves or camshafts.
