About this part

Product Details

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing components, and this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a prime example for your 2002-2005 Subaru Outback with the EZ30 flat-6 engine. This is the right-side gasket, designed with a 90mm bore and a compressed thickness of .018 inches, crucial for maintaining proper compression and sealing in your engine's top end.

This gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives it increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle tough sealing conditions and works well with both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks. Because it's an MLS design, it doesn't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness to meet specific engine requirements, like the .018 inch thickness on this particular gasket.
