Engine Gaskets

Our Payen, Elring and Victor Reinz range of gaskets, represents innovative design technology and strict manufacturing standards and qualities. All are trusted manufacturers to the automotive aftermarket.

Original equipment (OE) standards

Vehicle manufacturers only trust the best, proven technologies to protect their reputations. Produced to the exacting standards of the world’s largest automotive manufacturers, Payen^® sealing products incorporate Federal-Mogul’s extensive OE expertise.
More than 43 million new vehicles have been fitted with high durability Payen MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) head gaskets. Over 40 million Payen Liquid Elastomer Molding^® (LEM^®) gaskets have been fitted to OE applications, their low clamping loads helping to achieve further weight savings.

Evolution of sealing technology

Superior sealing components optimise the engine management system and enable engines to run efficiently. They support the high demands of today’s compact and lightweight engines, which minimise emissions by extracting more power from less fuel. Payen has been proactive in meeting these industry challenges and developing award-winning sealing solutions. We have more than 200 scientists and engineers addressing every aspect of sealing component design and manufacture.
