Victor Reinz 14-32030-02 Engine Cylinder Head Bolt Set

The Victor Reinz 14-32030-02 is an engine cylinder head bolt set engineered to deliver OE-quality clamping force during cylinder head installation. When a cylinder head is removed and reinstalled, using fresh head bolts is strongly recommended — and for engines originally equipped with torque-to-yield (TTY) head bolts, replacement is an absolute necessity. TTY bolts are intentionally stretched beyond their elastic limit during the initial torquing process to achieve maximum clamping force for a reliable head gasket seal. Once stretched into the plastic region, they cannot be safely reused and must be replaced to prevent bolt failure and coolant or compression leaks.

Key Features:

• Torque-to-yield (TTY) design that pre-loads bolts into the plastic region for maximum clamping force
• No retorquing required after proper installation — bolts are tightened to a specified torque and then rotated through a defined angle
• Star head drive type for precise torque application
• OE-quality construction meeting or exceeding original manufacturer standards

Victor Reinz is a trusted name in engine sealing components, and this head bolt set reflects the same coverage, quality, and attention to detail found throughout their product line. Fits select 1975–1980 Mercedes-Benz 280-series models.
