What is the main advantage of a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket?

MLS head gaskets offer increased strength and better sealing capabilities compared to traditional composite gaskets. The multiple layers of stainless steel allow for greater resistance to corrosion and the ability to rebound under varying load conditions.

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

The Viton rubber coating on the outer layers helps to create a robust seal in harsh environments. It's designed to meet the demands of different sealing conditions and surface finishes, while also being heat resistant up to 482°F (250°C).

Does this gasket come with any hardware or sealant?

This product is for the Cometic MLS head gasket only. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific hardware or sealant requirements for your application.
