What is the primary benefit of the Viton coating on this gasket?

The Viton rubber coating on the outer layers helps create a robust seal. It's also heat resistant up to 482°F, which is important for maintaining seal integrity in the high-temperature environment of an engine.

What does Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction mean for this gasket?

MLS construction uses multiple layers of stainless steel. This design provides increased strength, helps the gasket rebound effectively, and offers good resistance to corrosion, contributing to a more durable seal.

Does this gasket come with any hardware or sealant?

This product is for the cylinder head gasket only. It is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific preparation or additional components required for proper installation.

About this part

Product Details

If you're working on a GM Gen-V or Gen-VI Big Block V8 engine, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket is a solid option. It's built with a 4.375-inch bore and a .089-inch thickness, designed to seal the combustion chamber effectively in a wide range of Chevrolet and GMC trucks and vans from the early to mid-90s, like the C1500, C2500 Suburban, and K3500.

This gasket uses multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it strength and helps it resist corrosion and maintain its shape under pressure. The outer layers are treated with a Viton rubber coating on both sides. Viton is known for its heat resistance, holding up to 482°F, making it suitable for the demanding conditions inside an engine. This construction helps ensure a reliable seal even with different surface finishes on the block and head.
