Federal-Mogul Announces Dramatic Expansion of Fel-Pro Gaskets Product Line

Federal-Mogul Corporation's Fel-Pro gaskets product line has been dramatically expanded to increase the brand's industry-leading coverage of late-model domestic and foreign-nameplate vehicles.

Federal-Mogul Corporation’s Fel-Pro gaskets product line has been dramatically expanded to increase the brand’s industry-leading coverage of late-model domestic and foreign-nameplate vehicles. The Fel-Pro brand’s focus on providing 100 percent sealing coverage for popular late-model and older applications helps engine rebuilders and repair shops capture and service larger shares of the automotive and light-truck sealing markets.

The expanded Fel-Pro product line – which now includes more than 600 additional gasket, seal, head bolt and other SKUs – is featured in the brand’s all-new Master Catalog (#900-09), available through Fel-Pro distributors across North America.

“We have aggressively expanded the Fel-Pro product line to help ensure that professional technicians have the most innovative and effective sealing technologies for virtually all applications,” said Laura Teste, director, marketing, sealing products, Federal-Mogul. “By choosing Fel-Pro products, engine rebuilders and other service businesses can virtually eliminate the need to rely on dealership parts departments for late-model sealing applications.”

Fel-Pro gaskets are backed by the world-class manufacturing capabilities and global resources of Federal-Mogul, enabling the brand’s engineering and product management teams to quickly introduce proven Fel-Pro sealing solutions for late-model vehicles. The Fel-Pro Master Catalog features new coverage of late-model domestic and foreign-nameplate engines, including dozens of additional Audi, BMW, Chrysler, Daewoo, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Isuzu, Jeep, Kia, Land Rover, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Saturn, Suzuki, Toyota and Volkswagen applications.

In addition to extensive new foreign-nameplate coverage, the 2009 Fel-Pro catalog features innovative new sealing solutions for several high-demand truck applications from Chrysler/Dodge (5.7L HEMI), Ford (4.6L, 5.4L and 6.8L three-valve Triton) and GM (6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel).

Federal-Mogul also has continued to expand its first-to-market advantage for the latest OE automotive platforms and engines. Among the brand’s new products and application coverage are:

• More than 60 new Fel-Pro PermaTorqueMLS multi-layer-steel head gaskets and 94 new head sets for late-model engines. Federal-Mogul’s Fel-Pro products are the clear market leader in multi-layer-steel gasket technology and coverage.

• “HST” Head Sets featuring the latest technologies to solve chronic sealing issues.

• Problem-solving Fel-Pro PermaDryPlus intake manifold repair sets for a significantly expanded range of Ford and GM passenger car and light-truck applications.

• PermaDryPlus timing cover gasket sets that enable technicians to re-use the plastic OE timing covers on a variety of GM light-truck engines.

• A variety of new head bolt and intake manifold bolt sets for late-model engines.

The 2009 Master Catalog also offers expanded head-bolt recommendation information for each head gasket, head set and full set application listing, enabling the user to quickly identify applications where new head bolts should be used with a gasket replacement.
