Dana Holding Corporation (NYSE: DAN) announced today that it has completed the acquisition of Magnum Gaskets®, a U.S.-based supplier of aftermarket gaskets and sealing products for automotive and commercial-vehicle applications. Magnum Gaskets will enhance Dana’s sealing product offerings and complement the company’s Victor Reinz® and Glaser® global sealing brands. “This acquisition aligns with Dana’s growth strategy and our company’s global position as a preeminent supplier of gaskets and sealing technologies for original-equipment manufacturers and our aftermarket customers,” said James Kamsickas, Dana president and chief executive officer. “This strategic action will enable Dana to increase customer satisfaction, while accelerating our aftermarket growth by expanding our portfolio of products and the geographical regions in which we operate.” The Magnum Gaskets® brand offers a broad range of gasket solutions, including cylinder head, valve cover, oil pan, and manifold gasket sets for the North American automotive aftermarket.
