What is the advantage of Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gaskets?

MLS gaskets are made from multiple layers of stainless steel, which increases their strength and resistance to corrosion. They are also designed to rebound, helping to maintain a strong seal under demanding conditions.

Why is Viton coating used on the outer layers?

Viton is a heat-resistant rubber material that can withstand temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This coating helps the gasket perform reliably in harsh sealing environments and under various load conditions.

Do I need to use any sealant with this head gasket?

No, Cometic MLS head gaskets are designed to provide maximum sealing performance on their own and do not require the use of additional sealants.

About this part

Product Details

Built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is designed for high-output engines like the Chevrolet ZL1 Mark-IV Big Block V8. Its compressed operating thickness is precisely 0.098 inches, and it features a 4.375-inch bore to match your engine's needs. These MLS gaskets are ideal for sealing aluminum heads to either aluminum or cast iron blocks, effectively handling the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

The outer layers of this gasket are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material rated up to 482°F (250°C). Viton is chosen for its ability to withstand harsh sealing environments and varying load conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for adjustments in thickness to meet specific requirements. Because they are made from multiple layers of stainless steel, these gaskets offer increased strength and the ability to rebound, while also resisting corrosion. They are well-built to provide maximum sealing performance without the need for additional sealants.
