Cometic Subaru EJ22E Turbo SOHC 16V 98mm .045 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring Viton rubber coating on the outer layers. With a compressed operating thickness of 0.045 inches, it's designed to provide maximum sealing performance for your 1991-1994 Subaru Legacy's EJ22E Turbo engine.

MLS gaskets are a strong choice because they are made from layers of stainless steel, which helps them rebound and resist corrosion. The Viton coating on the outer layers is a heat-resistant material, capable of handling temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), making it suitable for harsh sealing environments and various surface finishes. This construction is ideal for sealing between aluminum heads and either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can withstand the shearing forces that can occur between dissimilar metals.

Because these MLS gaskets are well-built and require no additional sealants, they offer a straightforward installation process for rebuilding your engine's top end. The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thickness requirements, ensuring a precise fit for your specific needs.
