Cometic 00-06 Kawasaki ZX-12R 85mm Bore .030 MLS Head Gasket

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket for 2000-2006 Kawasaki ZX-12R models. It's designed with an 85mm bore and is 0.030 inches oversize, intended for engine rebuilds where the cylinder bore has been machined to this specific dimension.

MLS head gaskets are known for their durability and ability to seal under high pressure and temperature conditions, making them a popular choice for performance applications or when rebuilding an engine. The multiple layers of steel, often with a specialized coating, help to accommodate the slight imperfections and movement between the cylinder head and the engine block, ensuring a solid seal. This gasket is a direct replacement for the stock unit, assuming the cylinder head and block surfaces are prepared correctly for an MLS gasket installation.
