  Bolt Hex.Head

• Description:

  This genuine Ford cylinder head bolt, base number 6065, clamps the cylinder head to the engine block on current-generation Bronco Sport and Escape models with the EcoBoost engine, holding the head and head gasket under the high clamping load the joint requires. The bolt stretches to a controlled tension during torque-to-yield tightening, sealing the combustion chambers, coolant passages, and oil galleries between the head and block so the engine holds compression and stays sealed. As a critical fastener, it must provide and maintain that clamp load for the life of the head gasket joint. Technicians use this bolt during head gasket replacement, head service, or any repair that requires removing the cylinder head, where the original bolts are replaced rather than reused. A head gasket failure showing coolant loss, overheating, combustion gases in the coolant, or oil and coolant mixing is the condition that leads to this service. Built to Ford specifications for this engine, the bolt provides the correct length, thread, and yield characteristics for proper clamp load. Because torque-to-yield bolts stretch permanently when tightened, install new bolts whenever the head is removed. Clean the threads and bolt holes, follow the factory tightening sequence and angle-torque procedure exactly, and confirm the head gasket joint seals after the engine is returned to service.
