What is a Ford Rocker Cover Gasket?

A Ford rocker cover gasket (also known as a valve cover gasket) is a critical sealing component that fits between your engine's rocker cover and cylinder head. This specially engineered gasket serves three essential functions:

  1. Oil Containment - Prevents engine oil from leaking out of the valve train area
  2. Contaminant Barrier - Keeps dirt and debris from entering the engine
  3. Compression Maintenance - Helps maintain proper crankcase pressure

The rocker cover gasket ensures your valve train components remain properly lubricated while preventing oil from leaking onto hot engine surfaces.
