Cometic Mazda BP-4W/BP-ZE .066in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 85mm Bore

If you're working on the engine of your 1990-1998 Mazda Protege, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a solid choice for sealing the combustion chamber. It's designed specifically for the BP-4W and BP-ZE engines, with an 85mm bore and a compressed thickness of 0.066 inches, making it a direct fit for your application.

This gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it 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 degrees Fahrenheit. This construction means the gasket seals effectively without needing any additional sealants, and it's well-suited for applications where you have aluminum heads meeting either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can handle the stresses that can arise from those material combinations.
