About Automotive Cylinder Head

An automotive cylinder head is the end cover in an internal combustion engine. It is used against the piston, which compresses the cylinder's contents. In an internal combustion engine, the cylinder head sits above the cylinders on top of the cylinder block. It closes the top of the cylinder, which forms the combustion chamber. This joint is sealed by a head gasket. In most engines, the head also allows air and fuel to be fed into and out of the cylinder. The head can also be used to mount valves, spark plugs, and fuel injectors. A cylinder head needs to be robust to withstand high pressure and temperature, while retaining its shape and form to seal the cylinder block through the head gasket.

Technavio’s analysts forecast the global automotive cylinder head market to grow at a CAGR of 0.63% during the period 2016-2020.
