What does the HP shim technology do?

The HP shim technology is designed to increase the clamping force around the combustion chamber. This helps to create a stronger, more reliable seal between the cylinder head and the engine block, especially in open deck designs.

What is Viton coating and why is it used?

Viton is a type of synthetic rubber known for its excellent resistance to heat, oil, and other fluids. Coating the outer layers with Viton helps to improve the gasket's sealing ability and its longevity under demanding engine conditions.

Is this gasket suitable for both sides of the engine?

No, this specific part number (C15160-053) is for the right-hand side (RHS) of the 6.7L Scorpion V8 diesel engine. You would need a separate gasket for the left-hand side.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 2011-2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty with the 6.7L Scorpion V8 diesel, a solid head gasket is crucial. This Cometic MLX head gasket is built to handle the demands of that engine, ensuring a strong seal between your cylinder head and the open deck block.

The key here is Cometic's HP shim technology. It's designed to increase the clamping force right around the combustion chamber. This means a tighter seal where it matters most, helping to prevent leaks and maintain proper compression. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a material known for its resistance to heat and oil, which further contributes to a reliable seal under tough operating conditions.

This gasket is specifically for the right-hand side (RHS) of the engine and features a 100mm bore with a .053 inch thickness, making it a direct fit for the specified Super Duty trucks.
