The cylinder head forms the upper part of a cylinder. The joint between the head and the cylinders is always achieved through so-called studs, arranged to ensure the sealing of gases and prevent deformations that may be caused by thermal actions. The cylinder head is easily removable, allowing for straightforward engine maintenance operations. Choosing the gasket is very important as its failure can cause significant damage. For correct fitting, place it on the studs, ensuring it slides in parallel.
