Advantages of Silicone and Rubber Gaskets
These are comparable to type R and RST, except the outer case does not have a metal reinforcement ring. To compensate, the outside is not made of normal rubber, but a hard, heavy-duty rubber fabric. The advantage is that these types can be made in a split version. They are almost always produced to order, and made of NBR or FKM.
Take off the gasket from the cover flange or cylinder head , noting how it is attached. Some gaskets have tongues that fit cutouts in the flange; others are stuck to the flange with sealant ; some just fit into the flange groove .
