<p>The gasket comprises a flat metal plate of a uniform thickness, having bores corresponding to the combustion chambers of the engine, and holes for the head-clamping bolts, characterized in that the holes for the clamping bolts are rimmed with sheet steel of a predetermined thickness, and the bores corresponding to the combustion chambers are rimmed with elongated elastic inserts which are contained within a similar rim of sheet steel, the thickness of the elongated elastic inserts being such that the thickness at rest of the gasket at the bores for the combustion chambers is a few tenths of a millimeter larger than the thickness of the gasket at the holes of the clamping bolts. The fluid ports and the periphery of the gasket are surrounded by elastomeric beads. The elongated elastic inserts may consist in steel tubes, wound springs, or similar deformable profiles.</p> |
