Seals and gaskets prevent oil, coolant, fuel and combustion gases escaping between mating surfaces throughout the engine, and almost every joint opened during a repair depends on one. This group covers cylinder head gaskets, manifold and cover gaskets, crankshaft seals, valve stem seals, O-rings and toric seals, and complete gasket sets. MWM, now part of Caterpillar Energy Solutions, builds the TCG series of gas engines used in combined heat and power, biogas and landfill gas installations. These engines run continuously at high load for very long periods between overhauls, which places sustained thermal and pressure loading on every sealed joint and makes gasket condition a routine item at scheduled maintenance rather than a fault-driven repair.
AMS Parts supplies a wide range of seals & gaskets components for MWM engines used in power generation, marine, and industrial applications. Browse the full range below, or contact us for specific requirements.

At scheduled maintenance intervals rather than on failure. MWM specifies component renewal by operating hours, and gaskets in the affected area are renewed whenever a joint is opened.
Continuous high-load running over very long service intervals means joints are held at temperature and pressure almost constantly, with little of the thermal cycling relief that intermittent duty provides.
No. Gaskets take a set in service and rarely reseal reliably. New gaskets are fitted whenever a joint is disturbed.
