Description
Overview:
This Exhaust Gasket is a genuine Briggs & Stratton replacement for sealing the joint between the cylinder head/exhaust port and the muffler or exhaust manifold on larger petrol engines. Manufactured from heat-resistant composite materials designed to cope with thermal cycling and vibration, it helps maintain a gas‐tight seal, reducing exhaust leaks, noise, and loss of performance. It is engineered for Briggs & Stratton V‐Twin engines used in professional turf and machinery applications, including the 543477-3035-J1 31 HP (approx. 23.1 kW) and 613777-0116-J1 36 HP (approx. 26.8 kW) variants. As a Genuine Part referenced by OEM No. 809872, it matches the original dimensions and bolt-hole spacing for straightforward installation and reliable service life in construction and garden equipment.
