Cometic Honda B Series Hybrid VTEC Head/Non-VTEC Block .070in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 82mm Bore

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket designed for Honda B-series engines. You get one MLS head gasket with an 82mm bore and a compressed thickness of 0.070 inches. This gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing environments and works well with different block and head materials like aluminum and cast iron. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the 0.070 inches on this particular gasket.

MLS gaskets are a popular choice for high-output engines because they offer maximum sealing performance without needing extra sealants. The stainless steel construction helps them withstand the forces created when mating different metals, like aluminum heads to cast iron blocks. The Viton coating on the outer layers is designed to handle high temperatures, up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, and maintain a strong seal across various conditions and surface finishes.
