Product Details
If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1.8L Turbocharged VW or Audi from 1998 to 2006, a solid head gasket is crucial for sealing combustion pressure. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of these engines, fitting a range of vehicles like the Audi A4, TT, Volkswagen Golf, and Jetta.
Cometic uses multiple layers of stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F and works well with aluminum or cast iron blocks. This construction means the gasket seals effectively without needing additional sealants, and the center layer can be varied to achieve different thicknesses – in this case, it's set to a compressed thickness of 0.036 inches with an 82mm bore to match your engine.
