Summary: the structural storage gasket

The Base gasket 0.50 mm is a centerpiece for motorists. It is mainly used to:

1. Adjusting the rod: Essential when using longer rods or pistons with a different cap height of the standard.

2. "Fast track" diagrams: Allows you to raise the cylinder significantly to maximize the opening times of transfers, ideal for "long straight" type circuits.

3. Carter volume: Increasing the thickness to the base increases the dead volume of the bas-engine, which can make the engine less "nervous" and more progressive on low adhesion tracks.

- Why choose the TMKART seal?

1. Dimensional stability: At 0.50 mm, poor quality paper crash unevenly under the tightening torque. The TMKART seal guarantees a constant thickness over the entire seal plane.

2. Optimized internal stream: The cut is machined to correspond exactly to the generation housings KZ10B, R1, R2 and R3, avoiding any "walking" that would disturb admission.

3. High performance sealing: Treated to withstand the pressures of the low-engine and chemical aggression of competition fuels.

💡 Michel's trick

"The 0,50 mm seal is the thickness limit! My Pro Council: With an also thick seal, you will lose a lot of compression if you do not change your cylinder head dome or copper cylinder head gasket. It's a motorist setting. Also check that your centering pawns cylinder still exceeds enough housings to guide the cylinder. If they are too short because of the thickness of the seal, you risk a bad piston / cylinder alignment. Finally, do not forget: the more the seal is thick, the more the tightening must be controlled after the first heater! "

- Mounting guide

• Visual control: Before laying, make sure the seal has no trace of fold, which is critical on a thickness of 0.50 mm.

• SUISH measurement: Essential. The passage of a standard seal (0.20 mm) to a 0.50 mm increases your 0.30 mm squish, which will radically change the engine behavior.

• Lubrication: A thin layer of grease helps maintain this rigid seal in place on the housings when descent of the cylinder.
