Cylinder Head Bolt Set (10) - VW / 1.6L Diesel / 1.9L TD AAZ / TDI AHU & ALH

Product Information

An engine cylinder head bolt set is a collection of high-strength fasteners used to secure the cylinder head to the engine block. These bolts must withstand extreme pressure and temperature changes while maintaining a tight seal between the head gasket, cylinder head, and block. Proper installation and torquing of the head bolts are critical for preventing leaks, maintaining compression, and ensuring reliable engine performance.

• Coolant or oil leaks around the cylinder head due to a compromised seal.
• Engine overheating, often from head gasket failure caused by improper clamping force.
• Loss of compression or misfires, resulting from a loosened or stretched head bolt.

About Reinz

Founded by Hugo Reinz in 1920, Reinz has been known for the manufacturing of Automotive gaskets for over 90 years. For almost a century Reinz has provided gaskets and sealing products for both auto manufacturers and as an aftermarket solution for car enthusiasts. Their full catalog features over 15,000 different products, providing a great selection for excellent value. Way back in 1962 Reinz became the (OEM) original equipment manufacturer for the prestigious Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen car companies, a strong partnership that still continues to this day. The company continues to innovate and stay well ahead of the curve. For example, Reinz stopped using asbestos in their gaskets 12 years before it was banned in Germany in 1993. Reinz performs because every part they manufacture meets OEM standards – meaning you're getting great value that you can believe in. Many brands and models use sealing solutions from Reinz. In 1993 Reinx became a partner to the American company, Dana, to form the largest manufactures of components for automobile and commercial vehicles. The Gasket segment of Dana was Victor at the time ahich was then merged with Reinz to form the brand name of "Victor Reinz".
