What is the compressed thickness of these head gaskets?

The compressed operating thickness for these Cometic MLS head gaskets is 0.036 inches. This measurement is important for ensuring proper valve-to-piston clearance and compression ratios.

Do I need to use any sealant with these gaskets?

No, Cometic MLS head gaskets are designed to provide maximum sealing performance without the need for additional sealants. The Viton coating on the outer layers ensures a reliable seal on its own.

What is the benefit of the Viton coating?

The Viton rubber coating on the outer layers is heat-resistant up to 482°F (250°C). This material is chosen to meet the demands of harsh sealing environments, high loads, and various surface finishes, ensuring a durable seal.

About this part

Product Details

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket set designed for Subaru EJ20G engines with a 93mm bore. It includes the necessary gaskets to seal the cylinder heads to the engine block, crucial for maintaining compression and preventing coolant and oil leaks. The gaskets are built with multiple layers of stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance, and the outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that handles tough sealing environments without needing additional sealants.

The multi-layer design offers improved strength over traditional gaskets, helping to manage the forces created when mating different block and head materials, like aluminum to cast iron. The Viton coating on the embossed outer layers is rated for temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), ensuring a reliable seal even under high output conditions. This set is a solid option for rebuilding or repairing engines where a strong, dependable seal is needed.
