21411672 Gasket | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Profiled intake-system gasket fitted between the air-shutter / throttle-valve component and connecting pipe on specified Volvo Penta TAD5 and TAD7 industrial engines. It seals the charge-air path so commanded air-shutter operation is not affected by unmetered leakage.

🚤 Compatibility

Typically suits:

• Volvo Penta TAD550GE
• Volvo Penta TAD551GE
• Volvo Penta TAD560VE
• Volvo Penta TAD561VE

• Engine Family: TAD

⚙️ Key Features

• Genuine Volvo Penta intake air-shutter gasket
• Used with air-shutter 21411668 and connecting pipe 21412940
• Maintains a sealed boosted-air connection
• Single-use service gasket for clean reassembly
• Correct profile for the specified industrial-engine intake assembly
• Engine type: Volvo Penta inline industrial diesel with electronically controlled intake shutter

🔌 Function

Seals the air-shutter flange and prevents charge-air leakage around the electronically controlled intake valve.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Hissing or oil-mist staining at the flange
• Reduced boost response
• Air-shutter or intake-control fault codes
• Gasket tearing or crushing after dismantling
• Loose fasteners caused by joint movement

🛠️ Service Notes

• Fit a new gasket every time the joint is disturbed — a gasket takes a permanent set once it has been torqued and will not seal reliably a second time
• Scrape both faces back to clean bare metal, keeping the blade at a shallow angle so it lifts the old material without gouging the surface, and use a plastic scraper on aluminium castings
• Check the faces for flatness, cracks and corrosion pitting, and make sure no old gasket, carbon or hardened sealant is left in the corners or around the bolt holes
• Fit the gasket dry unless the workshop manual for your engine calls for a sealant, and then only the type it specifies — surplus sealant squeezes out into oil, coolant and fuel passages
• Draw the fasteners down progressively in the sequence and to the torque given in the manual for your engine, and recheck after the first heat cycle where the manual asks for it
