About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built gaskets that seal reliably, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example for your Honda Civic or CRX SI with a D15 or D16 SOHC engine. If you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, a solid head gasket is crucial for keeping combustion pressures contained and preventing coolant and oil from mixing. This gasket is specifically designed for a 78mm bore and has a compressed thickness of .030 inches, making it a good choice for many D-series engine builds.

This MLS gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and the ability to rebound, helping it resist corrosion and maintain a strong seal. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well in various sealing environments. This construction means the gasket doesn't require any additional sealants, and it's suitable for use with both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks, as it can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.
