Cometic Ford 4.6L V-8 Right Side 94MM .036 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring an outer layer coated with Viton rubber. When compressed, it measures 0.036 inches thick, and it's specifically designed for the right side of Ford 4.6L V-8 engines. MLS gaskets are a solid choice for high-output engines because they create a strong seal without needing any extra sealants. They work well whether you're joining aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, as they can handle the different expansion rates and shearing forces between these materials. The stainless steel layers give these gaskets strength and the ability to resist corrosion, while the Viton coating on the outer layers can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for demanding sealing environments.

The center layer of this gasket is uncoated stainless steel, and Cometic can vary this layer to achieve different thicknesses, like the 0.036 inches found here. This construction means the gasket can rebound and maintain its seal even under stress. It's a well-built component that fits a wide range of Ford and Lincoln vehicles, including models like the Crown Victoria, F-150, and Expedition, ensuring a reliable seal for your engine rebuild.
