About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your 1988-1995 Honda Civic, CRX, or del Sol, a solid head gasket is crucial for a good seal. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of performance engines, ensuring your cylinder head stays firmly seated against the block.

This 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 its seal over time. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This coating is designed to work well with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, and it seals effectively without needing any additional sealants. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses; this particular gasket has a compressed thickness of 0.056 inches and a bore size of 75.5mm, matching the specifications for your D15B1-2-7 or D16A6-7 engine.
