About this part

Product Details

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with embossed stainless steel layers, featuring a heat-resistant Viton rubber coating on the outer surfaces. With a compressed operating thickness of 0.060 inches and an 82mm bore, it's specifically designed for Honda B16A2, B16A3, B17A1, B18C1, and B18C5 VTEC engines found in vehicles like the 1994-2001 Acura Integra, 1994-1997 Honda Civic del Sol, and 1999-2000 Honda Civic.

MLS gaskets are known for their strength and ability to rebound, resisting corrosion and handling the shearing forces between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks. The Viton coating is designed to withstand harsh sealing environments and high temperatures, up to 482°F (250°C), meaning you won't need any additional sealants for a secure seal. The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control.
