Cometic Dodge 6.1L HEMI 4.100 inch Bore .045 inch MLS Head Gasket

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for your 6.1L HEMI engine. You get one head gasket in this package, featuring a 4.100 inch bore and a compressed thickness of 0.045 inches. MLS gaskets are built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving them increased strength and the ability to rebound, which helps them resist corrosion. They are also ideal for sealing between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, as they can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

The outer layers of this gasket are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. Viton is chosen for its ability to perform in tough sealing environments and under various load conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the 0.045 inches found here. These gaskets are designed for high-output engines and do not require any additional sealants.
