It is a genuine manufacturer sourced replacement part that is specially designed for Craftsman air compressors. This gasket provides an air-tight seal for the cylinder head assembly. Over time gaskets tend to get compressed, become brittle and crack eventually requiring replacement to maintain peak performance. It is made from durable, high quality composite material and it is sold individually.

Easy repair, correct part. Installation was pretty simple.
The part was an exact fit for the compressor I was working which is nice considering the machine is about 30 years old. Thank you

Just what the Dr. ordered...
*NOTE* Do yourself a solid and get both the upper and lower valve gaskets. If one is blown, the other isn't far behind. 1 nut (slightly beyond finger tight), 6 bolts (creep up to a torque of 26 ft/lb starting from the middle and in an X pattern) and a line connector to disassemble. The whole job, in include cleaning the old gasket off with a plastic scraper so as not to mar the surface, should take less than 30 minutes with the right tools. P.S. Turn your compressor off before you begin!

Head gasket had blown , from my lack of checking tightness of head bolts on a regular basis
Removed head and valve body and cleaned surfaces good and replaced with new gaskets and torqued head bolts to proper tightness... will check torque monthly now . hopefully avoid this from happening again ...
