About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built gaskets that seal reliably, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. If you're working on a 2014-2019 Ram 1500, or a classic Nissan L28/L28E non-turbo engine, this gasket is built to handle the job. It’s designed to provide a strong seal between your engine block and cylinder head, which is critical for keeping combustion pressures contained and preventing coolant and oil from mixing.

This gasket uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This coating helps ensure a tight seal even under demanding conditions and on various surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different compressed thicknesses, with this particular gasket having a compressed thickness of 0.098 inches and an 89mm bore size, making it suitable for specific engine builds.
