Cometic Porsche 944 2.5L 100.5mm .051 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with a compressed operating thickness of 0.051 inches and a 100.5mm bore, making it a solid choice for your 1983-1989 Porsche 944. MLS gaskets are known for their strength and ability to handle the demands of high-output engines, offering a reliable seal without needing additional sealants. They are well-suited for applications where aluminum heads meet either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as the multiple stainless steel layers can manage the different expansion rates and shearing forces between these materials.

The outer layers of this gasket are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes it effective in harsh sealing environments and under various load conditions. The center layer is made of stainless steel, and its thickness can be adjusted to meet different requirements. This construction provides increased strength and resistance to corrosion, helping to ensure a long-lasting seal for your engine.
