What makes a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket different from a traditional gasket?

MLS gaskets use multiple layers of stainless steel, which makes them stronger and more resistant to corrosion and blowouts than older composite designs. The stainless steel also allows the gasket to rebound, helping it maintain a seal under varying engine conditions.

What is the purpose of the Viton coating on this gasket?

The Viton coating on the outer layers helps the gasket conform to the sealing surfaces of the cylinder head and block. It's designed to withstand high temperatures, up to 482°F (250°C), and meet the demands of harsh sealing environments.

Does this gasket come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

This product is for the cylinder head gasket only. It does not include head bolts or other installation hardware, which should be sourced separately if needed.

About this part

Product Details

When you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, a solid cylinder head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chambers and coolant passages. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is designed to handle the pressures and temperatures of modern engines. It features multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while also allowing it to rebound and maintain a seal even under demanding conditions.

The outer layers of this Cometic gasket are embossed and then coated on both sides with Viton, a high-temperature resistant rubber material. This coating is effective up to 482°F (250°C) and helps the gasket conform to the surfaces of your cylinder head and block, ensuring a tight seal in a variety of environments and load conditions. The 83mm bore size is specific for certain engine applications, and the .023 inch thickness is a common choice for many rebuilds.
