Cometic Nissan VQ30/VQ35 V6 96mm RH .051 inch MLS Head Gasket 02- UP

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with embossed stainless steel layers, featuring a heat-resistant Viton rubber coating on the outer surfaces. With a compressed operating thickness of .051 inches and a 96mm bore, this right-side gasket is designed for the specific demands of Nissan VQ30 and VQ35 V6 engines. MLS gaskets are a strong choice for both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron block configurations, as they can handle the shearing forces that arise between dissimilar metals. The multiple stainless steel layers provide increased strength and resistance to corrosion, while the Viton coating ensures a reliable seal in harsh environments, even on varied surface finishes.

These gaskets are ideal for high-output engines and do not require any additional sealants for installation. The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to meet different thickness requirements, though this specific gasket is set at .051 inches. This gasket fits a wide range of Nissan and Infiniti vehicles, including models like the 350Z, Altima, Frontier, Maxima, and Infiniti FX35 and G35, making it a solid option for many VQ engine rebuilds.
