What makes this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket different from a standard gasket?

MLS gaskets are constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which provides superior strength and resilience compared to single-layer gaskets. The embossed and coated outer layers with Viton also offer enhanced sealing capabilities in high-temperature and high-pressure environments.

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

No, this Cometic MLS head gasket is designed to provide maximum sealing performance without the need for additional sealants. The advanced construction and Viton coating ensure a reliable seal on its own.

What is the compressed thickness of this head gasket?

The compressed operating thickness for this specific head gasket is 0.056 inches. This measurement is critical for maintaining proper compression ratios and valve-to-piston clearance in your engine.

About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is well-known for creating robust sealing solutions for demanding engine builds. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is specifically made for the Ford 4.6L right-side DOHC engine, featuring a Darton MID sleeve and a 95.25mm bore with a 0.056 inch compressed thickness. It's designed to handle the high output engines found in a wide range of vehicles, from the Ford Mustang and F-150 to the Lincoln Town Car and Mercury Grand Marquis.

This gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and corrosion resistance. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle harsh sealing environments and surface finishes up to 482°F (250°C). The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward. These gaskets are also effective when mating aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or cast iron blocks, as they can manage the shearing forces that can occur between dissimilar metals.
