Cometic 03-08 Dodge Cummins 5.9L 24v Common Rail 4.100in Bore .061 MLX Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring an outer coating of Viton rubber. When compressed, it measures 0.098 inches thick, with a bore size of 4.100 inches. This gasket is specifically designed for the demands of high-output engines, offering maximum sealing performance without the need for additional sealants or re-torquing.

MLS gaskets are a solid choice for sealing aluminum heads to either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as they can handle the shearing forces that arise from dissimilar metals. The layered stainless steel construction provides increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while also allowing the gasket to rebound. The Viton coating on the outer layers is a heat-resistant material, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for harsh sealing environments and various surface finishes. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, which can be varied in thickness to meet different requirements, like this .061 inch version.

This gasket is a direct fit for the 2003-2008 Dodge Ram 2500 and 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 3500 models equipped with the Cummins 5.9L 24v Common Rail engine.
