About this part

Product Details

This product is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for specific Honda and Acura engines. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel, featuring embossed outer layers coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material. The compressed operating thickness of this gasket is 0.027 inches, and it's made for an 81mm bore size.

MLS head gaskets are known for their ability to provide strong sealing performance, especially in high-output engines, and they don't require additional sealants. This design works well with both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron engine blocks, as it can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. The multiple stainless steel layers offer increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the Viton coating on the outer layers is made to withstand harsh sealing conditions and various surface finishes.

This particular gasket is intended for engines like the Honda B16A2, B16A3, B17A1, B18C1, and B18C5, commonly found in models like the Acura Integra and Honda Civic del Sol. It's a well-built component for rebuilding or repairing the top end of these engines.
