About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Honda K-series engine, specifically for a 2003-2011 Honda Element, a reliable head gasket is crucial. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of performance engines, ensuring a solid seal between your cylinder head and engine block.

Cometic uses 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 shearing forces between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, and it doesn't require any additional sealants for installation. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness; this particular gasket has a compressed operating thickness of 0.062 inches and is designed for an 88mm bore, making it suitable for K20 and K24 engines.
