Cometic Opel 20XE/C20XE/C20LET 88mm Bore .140in MLS Head Gasket

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built for Opel 20XE, C20XE, and C20LET engines, featuring an 88mm bore and a .140 inch thickness. It's designed to handle the demands of high-output engines, ensuring a strong seal without needing additional sealants.

The gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which increases its strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for harsh sealing environments. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .051 inch compressed operating thickness on this specific gasket. This construction is ideal for sealing between aluminum heads and either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces that occur between dissimilar metals.
