About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 2011-2017 Nissan Juke, a solid cylinder head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber. This Cometic MLX head gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it the strength to handle the pressures of a high-output engine. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing conditions and various surface finishes without needing additional sealants.

The multi-layer steel (MLS) construction offers increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the stainless steel center layer can be varied to achieve different thicknesses. This particular gasket measures 0.040 inches thick with an 81mm bore, making it suitable for specific engine builds where precise thickness is needed. Because it's designed for high-output engines, it's well-suited for applications where the stock gasket might not be enough.
