What is the compressed thickness of this head gasket?

This Cometic MLS head gasket has a compressed thickness of 0.051 inches. This measurement is important for maintaining proper compression ratios after installation.

What is the benefit of the Viton coating on the outer layers?

The Viton coating on the outer layers is a heat-resistant rubber material, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes the gasket suitable for high-output engines and harsh sealing environments.

Does this gasket require any additional sealants for installation?

No, Cometic MLS head gaskets are designed to provide maximum sealing performance on their own and do not require additional sealants. Their multi-layer construction ensures a reliable seal.

About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is well-known for making reliable sealing solutions, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example. This gasket is specifically designed for the left side of Ford 4.6L DOHC engines and includes a Darton MID sleeve, offering a compressed thickness of 0.051 inches. It fits a wide range of Ford and Lincoln vehicles, including models like the Ford Mustang, Expedition, and F-150.

What makes these MLS gaskets stand out is their construction. They're built with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes them ideal for high-output engines, whether you're pairing aluminum heads with an aluminum block or a cast-iron block. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to meet different thickness needs, ensuring a solid seal without needing extra sealants.
