Brake Master Cylinder Reservoir Cap Gasket for OE Fit

Dorman 42071 is a rubber brake master cylinder reservoir cap gasket built to match the fit and function of the original gasket on specified vehicles. It is made for dependable sealing performance in brake master cylinder reservoir applications, including classic Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models.

Key Features

  • Rubber construction for sealing at the brake master cylinder reservoir cap
  • OE-style fit and function for specified applications
  • Engineered for durability and reliable performance
  • Direct replacement for interchange part number 5455516
  • Part number 42071 for easy identification

Detailed Description

This brake master cylinder reservoir cap gasket is designed for vehicles that use a hydraulic brake system reservoir seal at the master cylinder cap. It helps maintain a proper seal between the cap and reservoir, supporting consistent brake fluid containment on applications such as Chevrolet Corvette, Chevrolet Camaro, GMC P3500, Buick Riviera, Cadillac Eldorado, and Pontiac Firebird. Dorman 42071 is a practical replacement for restoring the sealing surface on older brake systems where the original gasket has aged, hardened, or deteriorated.

This part cross-references 5455516 for the same application.

  • Restoring a seal on a leaking or weeping master cylinder reservoir cap
