Dewalt cac-1265-2 Valve Plate Thick Gasket

Product Description

The DEWALT cac-1265-2 is a thick valve plate gasket designed for use in DEWALT air compressor assemblies. Valve plate gaskets form a critical seal between the valve plate and the cylinder head, preventing air loss and maintaining compression efficiency during compressor operation. This part is a direct service replacement intended for technicians and trades professionals performing compressor maintenance and repair. The thick profile provides a reliable seal surface suited to the tolerances of the valve plate assembly it supports.

This gasket is used during service and overhaul of DEWALT air compressors where the original valve plate gasket has failed, compressed over time, or been damaged during disassembly. It is appropriate for shop or jobsite air compressor repairs performed by qualified service technicians. Replacement of this component is typically part of a valve plate service that may also include inspection of reed valves and the valve plate itself.
