38mm 2-Bolt Aluminum Gasket - 1.49 Inch
38mm 2-Bolt Aluminum Gasket — 1.49 Inch
Aluminum construction gasket with 2-bolt mounting pattern for carburetor, intake, or manifold sealing applications. The 1.49-inch thickness handles moderate compression loads while the 38mm diameter fits standard bolt spacing. Lightweight aluminum core resists corrosion and won't degrade under heat cycling.
Key Features
- 2-Bolt Pattern - Aligns with standard carburetor and intake mounting points without modification
- Aluminum Core - Sheds heat efficiently and resists thermal stress over repeated heat cycles
- 1.49-Inch Thickness - Engineered for proper sealing depth on common flange applications

- Bolt Pattern: 2-Bolt
- Diameter: 38mm
- Thickness: 1.49 Inch
- Condition: New

Whats Included
- 1x 38mm 2-Bolt Aluminum Gasket
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need bolts to mount this gasket?
Bolts are not included with this gasket. You'll use your existing fasteners or sourced hardware that fits the 2-bolt pattern. Torque spec depends on your specific application — check your engine manual or intake manufacturer guidance.
Should I use gasket sealer or sealant with this?
Aluminum gaskets typically work fine dry on clean, flat surfaces. If you're working with older or rougher flanges, a thin bead of gasket maker on the flange surfaces before installation can improve the seal. Test-fit first to confirm surface contact.
Can this gasket be reused after removal?
Single-use is recommended. Once compressed and seated, aluminum gaskets lose their spring and seal integrity if disturbed. Plan to replace it if you disassemble the joint again.
