About this part

Product Details

When you're rebuilding the top end of your 2000-2009 Honda S2000, a solid head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of the F20C engine. It features embossed outer layers coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a strong seal even under high output conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control, and this particular gasket has a compressed operating thickness of 0.120 inches with an 89mm bore.

MLS gaskets are well-built for modern engines because they're made from multiple layers of stainless steel. This construction not only increases strength but also allows the gasket to rebound and resist corrosion. They work well with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, and they can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. Because of their advanced construction, these gaskets don't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward.
