About this part

Product Details

This product is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for your Honda Civic or CRX SI with a D15 or D16 SOHC engine. It features a 77mm bore and a compressed thickness of .027 inches. This gasket is built to handle the demands of high-output engines and is suitable for use with both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks.

The MLS construction uses multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This advanced coating ensures a strong seal in various operating conditions without the need for additional sealants. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thickness requirements.
