Mercedes Engine Timing Cover Seal 40-77583-00 – Victor Reinz

The name REINZ represents a piece of German automotive history beginning more than ninety years ago. This means that Victor Reinz has had a hand in keeping automobiles on the road since the early days of mass production.

In 1993, REINZ became part of the American DANA Corporation. This means that joined forces with one of the world's largest independent manufacturers of components, supplying cutting edge driveline, sealing, and thermal-management technologies for both conventional and alternative-energy power trains.

The gasket segment of DANA, consisting of VICTOR in the United States and REINZ in Germany, combined to become VICTOR REINZ and is now the world's largest manufacturer of flat gaskets. VICTOR REINZ has revolutionized sealing technology by replacing traditional soft gasket materials with new multi-layer steel gaskets consisting of layers of steel, embossed and coated with elastomer, increasing the surface pressure.

As an original equipment manufacturer and replacement part supplier, Dana delivers innovative sealing technologies of the highest quality under the brand name Victor Reinz. All spare parts in the comprehensive product range meet the high standards of OEM quality.

Today, Victor REINZ has produced over 1.5 billion gaskets and the name REINZ is known for gaskets and innovation of the highest level. New cars are equipped with VICTOR REINZ from the factory. They are available as replacement parts from eEuroparts.
