Cometic BMW M20 2.5L/2.7L 85mm .040 inch MLS Head Gasket 325i/525i

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. It's designed specifically for BMW M20 engines with 2.5L or 2.7L displacement and an 85mm bore, featuring a compressed thickness of 0.040 inches. This gasket fits a range of popular BMW models, including the 325i, 525i, and 528e, making it a solid option for rebuilding or repairing your engine.

This MLS gasket uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion, which helps it handle the shearing forces between aluminum heads and blocks, or aluminum heads and cast iron blocks. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well in tough sealing environments. The center layer is also stainless steel and can be varied to meet different thickness needs. Because it's an MLS design, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying the installation process.
