About Elring Parts

Elring's history stretches back more than 140 years, making it one of the oldest and most established names in automotive sealing technology. The company began producing gaskets in the early 1900s and today forms part of the ElringKlinger Group, a global supplier of original equipment components to vehicle manufacturers around the world. Elring's reputation has been built on engineering expertise, product quality and a commitment to developing reliable sealing solutions for modern and classic vehicles alike.

Within the Volkswagen community, Elring is best known for its gasket sets, cylinder head gaskets, oil seals, valve stem seals, crankshaft seals and engine sealing compounds. These products are commonly used during engine rebuilds, top-end refreshes and routine maintenance, helping to prevent oil leaks, maintain compression and ensure long-term engine reliability. Elring parts are frequently chosen by professional workshops and enthusiasts because they offer OEM-quality fit and performance.

Elring products are particularly popular for the Volkswagen Beetle, T2 Split Screen, T2 Bay Window, T2 Brazilian Bay and T25. Whether you're rebuilding a 1200cc Beetle engine, replacing pushrod tube seals on a Bay Window or carrying out a complete air-cooled engine restoration, Elring gasket and sealing products help keep your Volkswagen running smoothly and leak-free.

Compatibility & Fitment Guidance

To ensure you order the correct Elring part, we recommend checking:

Your Volkswagen model and year.
Engine size and engine code.
Whether the engine is air-cooled or water-cooled.
Existing OEM or manufacturer part numbers.
Whether you're replacing an individual gasket or a complete set.

Many air-cooled Volkswagen engines look similar externally, but gasket specifications can vary significantly between engine sizes and production years.

How to Choose the Right Elring Gasket Set

For a complete engine refresh, a full gasket set can often be the most cost-effective option. If you're replacing individual components such as cylinder heads or pushrod tubes, make sure you select the correct gasket kit for your engine size and model year. Always inspect mating surfaces carefully and follow recommended torque settings during installation.
