SCE

Born of a need to supply their own racing engines, my father Ryan and grandfather Dan Hunter laid the foundation for SCE Gaskets in Lancaster, California in April 1990. Initially focused on copper head gaskets for drag racing, Ryan applied his ingenuity to racing engine sealing, creating new and patented products and categories such as Pro-Copper embossed exhaust gaskets, Titan Self-Sealing copper head gaskets, and ICS copper head gaskets with built-in o-rings. SCE’s product offering quickly grew to include all types of engine gaskets and seals “from the hat to the pan”. Building on our racing heritage, the SCE Gaskets brand went international, gaining distribution through premier wholesale warehouse partners across the United States, Canada, and Australia. In 2011, our family acquired a gasket manufacturing operation in Spencer, Iowa which further diversified the company’s products and customers to include Marine, Industrial, Agricultural, Antique and OE Replacement.

In 2015, we began the search for a location to consolidate our California and Iowa operations for improved production and logistics. In 2017 we selected the picturesque small town of Mount Pleasant, Tennessee as the company’s permanent home — about one hour southwest of Nashville.

Today, over 30 years have passed, and the SCE Gaskets brand remains true to its family roots of innovation and vibrant relationships with employees, distribution partners and consumers of its products.
