Description
There’s nothing worse than finding coolant puddles under your tractor or dealing with an engine that runs too hot because coolant is seeping out around the thermostat housing. This little gasket might not look like much, but it’s what keeps your cooling system sealed tight and working the way it should. When your thermostat housing gasket starts leaking, you’ll lose coolant, get air in the system, and end up with overheating problems that can cost you big time.
What You’re Getting
- Precise fit that seals the thermostat housing to the engine block without leaks
- Heat-resistant material that won’t crack or shrink from temperature cycling
- Direct replacement—no modifications needed during thermostat service
- Quality construction that handles the thermal stress of diesel engine operation
Built for Real Farm Work
This gasket fits the Ford New Holland TM series tractors you see doing heavy field work, from the smaller TM115 up to the big TM190 row-crop machines. It also works on TW series tractors and the 70 series models like the 8770, 8870, and 8970. Whether you’re running a tedder, pulling a planter, or doing loader work, these tractors operate under demanding conditions with long hours during critical seasons and temperature extremes.
Made to Last
Agricultural engines face unique challenges that automotive gaskets simply can’t handle, with constant vibration from field work, thermal cycling from varying loads, and exposure to dust, moisture, and chemicals. This gasket is engineered to handle the heat cycles and coolant exposure that come with hard-working farm tractors.
Installation Notes
Remove the housing carefully and make sure gasket surfaces are perfectly clean for proper sealing. You’ll need to drain coolant below the thermostat housing level first. A scraper and some brake cleaner will get the old gasket material off clean. Always use a new gasket when doing thermostat work—trying to reuse the old one usually ends up with leaks and another trip under the hood.
