Cometic MG Midget 1275cc 74mm Bore .045 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket features embossed outer layers coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material rated up to 482°F. It's built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while also allowing it to rebound and maintain a seal. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, which can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the 0.045 inch compressed operating thickness of this particular gasket.

MLS gaskets are a solid choice for engines with aluminum heads and either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as they can handle the shearing forces that can occur between different metals. Because they are designed for high-output engines and harsh sealing environments, they require no additional sealants, making installation more straightforward. This gasket is specifically made for the 1275cc engine with a 74mm bore, ensuring a proper fit for your MG Midget.
