Parts for Briggs & Stratton 354447-0120-E1: Exhaust System Parts

This exhaust gasket is located to fit between the exhaust system and the engine exhaust. It is used on many types of lawn and garden equipment. When operating correctly, the gasket will prevent exhaust from leaking. It also has sufficient flex to allow parts to expand when heat is present. The main purpose of a gasket is to prevent leaking. When the gasket is failing, it often leads to exhaust leaking from the joint.Many situations can cause an exhaust gasket to fail. The part can lose flexibility, dry out, or experience cracks. If the gasket chafes, it will lose its heat resistance and begin to dry out. When there is excess engine vibration, the gaskets can also tear. If this occurs, checking the engine mounts is important to ensure they are tightened and fully secure. Replacing the gasket involves removing the engine, taking out the old gasket, and putting a new one in its place.This exhaust gasket is a genuine OEM component sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually and fits lawnmowers, wood chippers, snowblowers, and generators from Briggs & Stratton, Toro, Cub Cadet, Snapper, MTD, and Simplicity.
