About this part

Product Details

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket starts with a compressed operating thickness of 0.066 inches and an 87mm bore, designed to seal your Toyota's 2T, 2T-C, 3T-C, 3T-EU, or 13T-U engine. MLS gaskets are built for high-output engines, offering a robust seal without needing extra sealants. They handle the differences between aluminum heads and cast iron blocks well, resisting the shearing forces that can develop.

The strength of this gasket comes from its multiple stainless steel layers, which also help it rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit. This makes it suitable for tough sealing jobs and various surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel, allowing Cometic to vary thicknesses for different engine needs.
