Description

When your International starts blowing white smoke out the stack, using coolant like it’s going out of style, or losing compression on one or more cylinders, chances are your head gasket has called it quits. Whether it’s coolant mixing with oil or that rough idle telling you something’s wrong, this complete head gasket set gives you everything needed to restore proper sealing and get back to work.

What You’re Getting

Complete head gasket set with every seal, gasket, and O-ring needed for a proper head job—no second trips to town for missing parts
Multi-layer steel construction with specialized coatings that handle extreme pressures and temperatures in diesel engines
Modern valve cover gaskets that stay pliable longer than original rubber seals
Quality TISCO construction that meets or exceeds original equipment specifications

Built for Real Farm Work

International tractors are known for their durability and long service life, handling everything from cultivating and planting to loader work and heavy pulling. These workhorses see years of faithful service where heat cycles and constant loads eventually take their toll on head gaskets. Whether you’re running a utility tractor for chores or a larger row-crop machine for serious field work, proper head sealing is what keeps your engine running strong.

Made to Last

The gasket materials are designed to handle the thermal cycling and high pressures of diesel operation without blowing out or losing compression. Farm engines work hard in demanding conditions, and this gasket set is built to match that work ethic with materials that resist the constant expansion and contraction of daily use.

Installation Notes

A successful head gasket job starts with proper diagnosis—make sure you’ve identified why the original failed, have the head checked for cracks and warpage, and follow the manual’s torque sequence precisely. While you could replace just the head gasket, all those other seals have endured the same heat cycles and age, so doing the complete set now saves future headaches.
