Mahle HS4068 Engine Cylinder Head Gasket Set

Engine Cylinder Head Gasket Set Overview

Mahle HS4068 is an OEM-standard engine cylinder head gasket set built for diesel applications that require reliable sealing across the head, intake, and exhaust interfaces. It is a fitment-based replacement for heavy-duty trucks and medium-duty platforms, including Dodge Ram 2500 and Dodge Ram 3500 applications.

Key Features

• Solid core composite cylinder head gasket material for dependable sealing performance.
• Steel exhaust manifold gasket material for high-temperature durability.
• Molded rubber intake manifold gasket material for consistent sealing at the intake side.
• OEM-standard grade for service replacement work.
• Contains miscellaneous gaskets and seals for related sealing points.
• Torque-to-yield application noted in fitment data.

Detailed Description

Mahle HS4068 is engineered as a cylinder head gasket set for diesel engine service where sealing integrity is critical after head removal or top-end repair. The set uses a solid core composite head gasket, steel exhaust manifold gasket material, and molded rubber intake manifold gasket material to address multiple sealing surfaces in one service job. This part cross-references FEL-PRO HSU 9332 and Chrysler 4429 126 for the same application. It is listed for a wide range of Ford, Freightliner, Kenworth, Peterbilt, and Dodge truck platforms, including Ford F-700, Ford F-800, and Freightliner FL70 applications.

What It Helps Address

• Coolant or compression leakage at the cylinder head sealing surface.
• Exhaust leaks at the manifold interface.
• Intake sealing issues after top-end service.
• Sealing problems caused by worn or damaged gaskets during engine repair.
• Service interruptions when replacing head gaskets on torque-to-yield applications.

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm engine code, gasket thickness, and application details before installation. Fitment notes specify standard thickness head gasket use and recommend cylinder head bolt replacement; cylinder head bolts are not included. Because this is a torque-to-yield application, follow the manufacturer’s tightening sequence and torque procedure exactly. Verify all mating surfaces are clean and flat before assembly. Compatible With 1989-1998 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500, 1992-1997 Ford F-700 and F-800, and other listed medium-duty truck applications.
