The automotive industry has been the most potentially disruptive journey in the decade. Engine, the most crucial part of the vehicles, has been under immense pressure due to the implementation of stringent regulations, such as CAFÉ Standards. All the automakers are joining efforts with the engine manufacturers to unravel the challenges including the development of fuel-efficient engines. Seals could not escape from this trend and have been witnessing a paradigm shift concerning design, material, process, geometry, etc.

Automotive engine seals ensure no leakage of fluids, coolant, oil, and air from external or internal passages of the internal combustion engine. The head gasket is the most vital engine seal that absorbs all the vehicle engine heat and compression. These seals are required to be reliable, long-lasting, and able to survive against heavy-duty use and extreme vibrations made by the engine.
