Detailed Description

Mahle HS54602 is engineered for engine rebuild and head gasket service where precise sealing is critical. The multi-layered steel construction at the cylinder head and exhaust manifold helps maintain sealing integrity under heat and pressure, while the rubber-coated metal intake manifold gasket supports a stable seal at the intake side. The set is specified as OEM standard and is intended for applications that require torque-to-yield fastener procedures. The part number HS54602 is also cross-referenced to Fel-Pro HS 26610 PT for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Combats coolant or combustion sealing loss at the cylinder head
• Addresses exhaust leaks at the manifold sealing surface
• Helps correct intake manifold sealing issues
• Supports resealing during top-end engine service
• Assists with repairs after head removal or gasket failure

Installation Notes and Tips

Fitment includes Mercedes-Benz E350, C350, ML350, R350, SLK350, CLK350, GLK350, ML450, E400, and S400, plus Dodge and Freightliner Sprinter 2500 and 3500 applications. Fitment notes specify RTV silicone sealant for valve covers, no cylinder head bolts included, and cylinder head bolt replacement recommended.
