When selecting a gasket for the valve cover, it is important to consider factors such as material quality, durability, and compatibility with the specific engine model. High-quality gasket valve covers are designed to withstand the demanding conditions of automotive operation, providing reliable sealing solutions that contribute to the overall performance and safety of the engine. Choosing reputable suppliers and manufacturers known for producing high-quality gasket valve covers is crucial to ensure the reliability and longevity of these critical components.

The head gasket and valve cover gasket are critical components in the engine's sealing system. The head gasket seals the cylinder head to the engine block, while the valve cover gasket seals the valve cover to the cylinder head. Both gaskets play pivotal roles in maintaining the integrity and functionality of the engine, preventing oil leaks and ensuring the proper sealing of the combustion chamber.

ERIKS type M (type B according to the DIN standard) has a single metal casing and rubber sealing lip. Since the casing is made of metal, it must be fitted in a well-finished, undamaged groove. Large volumes of oil seals with metal casings are often cheaper, which is why they are often used as original equipment in machines. However, if an oil seal has to be replaced, types with a rubber exterior (type R or RST) are easier to fit. Type MST is similar to M and commonly used. The difference is the dust lip in the MST oil seal that prevents dust and dirt reaching the sealing lip, and extends its service life in dusty environments.
An oil seal, often overlooked, plays a pivotal role in the overall performance and longevity of a rotavator. It is a simple yet crucial element that prevents oil leaks and ingress of dust and debris into the machine's lubrication system. The term rotavator oil seal refers specifically to the seals used in the rotating parts of the tiller, such as the gearboxes and shafts.
