Fel-Pro unveils three exclusive head gasket sets for popular Subaru engines

Sept. 3, 2014
The new sets are among 31 additional Fel-Pro part numbers introduced in the past year for more than 2.3 million Subaru vehicles.

Federal-Mogul Motorparts' Fel-Pro Gaskets brand has introduced three first-to-market PermaTorque MLS multi-layer-steel head gasket sets for a variety of popular 2.5L engines used in late-model Subaru passenger vehicles. The new sets are among 31 additional Fel-Pro part numbers introduced in the past year for more than 2.3 million Subaru vehicles.

Each new Fel-Pro head set features the brand's premium, problem-solving PermaTorque MLS head gaskets, which provide the robust seal needed to contain peak combustion pressures and temperatures and withstand the significant casting motion encountered in many of today's automotive engines. Each gasket features multiple layers of full-hard stainless steel, precisely engineered sealing beads and the brand's proprietary blue aftermarket coating, which accommodates a wider range of surface finishes. Also featured in each head gasket is the brand's exclusive LaserWeld stopper layer, which provides a precisely determined compression limit to help reduce head lift and bore distortion and prevent gasket damage while ensuring a superior combustion seal.

The following new PermaTorque MLS head sets are now available through Fel-Pro suppliers:

            HS26531PT        2006-2007 Subaru H4 2.5L DOHC EJ255 (Forester, Impreza)

                                    2007-2009 Subaru H4 2.5L DOHC EJ257 (Impreza)

                                    2006 Saab H4 2.5L DOHC EJ255 (Aero)

            HS26531PT1  2008-2012 Subaru H4 DOHC EJ255 (Forester, Impreza)

                                    2007-2009 Subaru H4 DOHC EJ255 (Legacy, Outback)

            HS26531PT2  2010-2012 Subaru H4 DOHC EJ255 (Legacy)

In addition to these new head gasket sets, Federal-Mogul Motorparts in the past year has introduced eight additional Fel-Pro head gaskets, six manifold sets, four valve cover sets, one oil pan set and 11 small-gasket sets for millions of 2.5L and 3.0L Subaru engines.

As "The Gaskets Professionals Trust," Fel-Pro gaskets feature an array of innovative designs and proprietary materials engineered specifically for the aftermarket repair environment. With engineering and manufacturing operations based in in Skokie, Ill., the Fel-Pro brand offers comprehensive gasket coverage across all sealing repair categories for vehicles dating back to 1909.
