Cometic Honda D15Z1/D16Y5/D16Y7/D16Y8/D16Z6 .045in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 78mm Bore

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is what you get in the box for your 1992-2000 Honda Civic with a D15Z1, D16Y5, D16Y7, D16Y8, or D16Z6 engine. It's designed to create a strong seal between your cylinder head and engine block, which is crucial for keeping combustion pressures contained and preventing coolant and oil leaks.

Cometic builds these gaskets with multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle high temperatures up to 482°F (250°C) and works well with different block and head materials, like aluminum and cast iron. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different compressed thicknesses, like the 0.036 inches this gasket achieves when installed. This design means you don't need any extra sealants for a reliable seal.
