What does Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) mean for a head gasket?

MLS gaskets are constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which makes them stronger and more resistant to corrosion than single-layer gaskets. This design also allows them to rebound and maintain a strong seal under demanding conditions.

What is Viton coating and why is it used on this gasket?

Viton is a type of synthetic rubber that is highly resistant to heat, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). Coating the outer layers with Viton helps ensure a reliable seal in harsh engine environments and against various surface finishes.

Do I need to use any sealant with this Cometic head gasket?

No, Cometic MLS head gaskets are designed to provide maximum sealing performance on their own and do not require additional sealants. Their construction is intended to create a robust seal right out of the box.

About this part

Product Details

This product is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket designed for specific Honda Civic engines. You get one MLS head gasket with a compressed thickness of 0.084 inches and a bore size of 75.5mm, suitable for D15Z1, D16Y5, D16Y7, D16Y8, and D16Z6 engine codes.

MLS gaskets are built 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 temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This construction means the gasket can handle the demands of higher output engines and provides a reliable seal between aluminum heads and blocks, or aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, without needing additional sealants.
