Cometic Honda H23A1 .072in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 87.5mm Bore

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built for your Honda H23A1 engine, featuring an 87.5mm bore and a compressed thickness of .072 inches. It's designed to handle the demands of high-output engines, providing a strong seal between your cylinder head and engine block without needing additional sealants. The multiple stainless steel layers offer increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the Viton rubber coating on the outer layers ensures it can handle high temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit.

The construction of this gasket uses multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it the strength to withstand the forces between different block and head materials, like aluminum heads on cast iron blocks. The Viton coating on both sides is a heat-resistant elastomer that works well in tough sealing situations and on various surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness to meet different engine build requirements, like the .072 inch thickness on this specific gasket.
