The Mahle P27944TC axle housing cover gasket is an OEM-standard sealing solution for classic rear axle service. Built with cork and a metal carrier, it helps create a stable seal at the differential cover on a wide range of Chevrolet, Pontiac, Buick, and Oldsmobile vehicles.

The Mahle P27944TC is made for 12-bolt-hole covers measuring 10-5/8 in. x 10-7/8 in.

Detailed Product Description

Mahle gaskets are used by OEMs and technicians worldwide for sealing applications that require consistent fit and dependable material performance. This axle housing cover gasket uses a cork with metal carrier design to support even compression across the cover flange, helping maintain a secure seal at the differential housing. The Mahle P27944TC is a practical replacement for service work on classic GM driveline and axle assemblies, including Chevrolet Nova, El Camino, Monte Carlo, Camaro, Bel Air, Caprice, and Impala, along with Pontiac Grand Prix, LeMans, and GTO, Buick LeSabre, Riviera, and Skylark, and Oldsmobile Cutlass and Cutlass Supreme.

This part cross-references FEL-PRO RDS 55029 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Gear oil seepage at the axle housing cover
  • Leaks caused by a flattened or deteriorated cover gasket
  • Uneven sealing at the differential cover flange
  • Service issues on 12-bolt-hole rear axle covers
  • Replacement needs during rear axle inspection or maintenance

Installation Notes and Tips

Clean both mating surfaces thoroughly before installation and remove all old gasket material, sealant residue, and debris. Verify the cover pattern and dimensions match 12 bolt holes and 10-5/8 in. x 10-7/8 in. before assembly. Tighten fasteners evenly in a crisscross pattern to help the gasket seat uniformly and reduce the chance of distortion.

Quality Assurance

Mahle positions this gasket as an OEM-standard sealing component, reflecting the brand’s focus on OE-level fit and material consistency for professional repair work.
