Fel-Pro PermaDry Oil Pan Gasket Set for Chevrolet K1500 — OS 34500 R with SnapUps, Molded Rubber Leak-Resistant

This full gasket set is engineered for professional repair environments, using PermaDry rubber compounds designed to resist deformation, extrusion and leaks over time. It replaces the OE-style molded rubber pan gasket and supplies the additional components you need to complete the job without hunting for missing parts. Built to accommodate imperfect sealing surfaces commonly found during repairs, this set helps you re-establish a durable seal and reduce the need for repeated disassembly.

How does this gasket set improve oil pan sealing on older trucks?

The OS 34500 R uses PermaDry molded rubber that remains flexible and resilient under heat and repeated torque cycles, helping maintain continuous contact across the oil pan flange. It’s tailored to fill gaps and irregularities that develop on used sealing surfaces without resorting to excessive bolt torque.

• PermaDry rubber resists cracking and extrusion for long-term sealing
• Profiled design conforms to worn or slightly warped pan surfaces
• Torque limiters (where applicable) prevent overtightening and gasket damage

What comes in the Fel-Pro OS 34500 R kit and why does it matter?

This Fel-Pro kit includes the OE-style molded rubber oil pan gasket and the necessary hardware components, including Oil Pan SnapUps to hold the gasket in place during installation. Having a complete kit eliminates guesswork and reduces time spent sourcing separate parts.

• OE-style molded rubber oil pan gasket precisely sized for fitment
• Oil Pan SnapUps to simplify positioning and fastener alignment
• All required pieces for a typical repair—no extra trips to the parts counter

Will this gasket set work with imperfect or lightly damaged sealing surfaces?

Yes. Fel-Pro designs these gaskets specifically for the repair environment, meaning they account for common surface imperfections. The material and profile help seal minor nicks or unevenness without relying on excessive clamp force.

• Engineered to accommodate small surface defects and pitting
• Reduces need for aggressive surface re-machining in many repairs
• Helps prevent leaks that can occur after conventional gasket replacement
