What makes a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket different from a composite gasket?

MLS gaskets use multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resilience, especially under high heat and pressure. Composite gaskets are typically made from a single layer of material and may not offer the same level of durability in demanding applications.

What is Viton and why is it used on this gasket?

Viton is a high-performance synthetic rubber known for its excellent resistance to heat and harsh chemicals. Coating the gasket with Viton helps ensure a strong, reliable seal in the extreme temperatures and conditions found within an engine.

Does this gasket come with any installation hardware?

This product is for the Cometic cylinder head gasket only. It does not include head bolts or other installation hardware, which should be sourced separately if needed.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Toyota 3S-GE or 3S-GTE engine, a reliable head gasket is crucial for a proper seal. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of these engines, ensuring your cylinder head stays sealed against combustion pressures and coolant leaks.

Cometic constructs this gasket from multiple layers of stainless steel, which offers increased strength and resilience compared to traditional materials. The outer layers are treated with a Viton rubber coating on both sides. Viton is known for its excellent heat resistance, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), making it well-suited for the harsh environment within an engine. The 87mm bore and .065 inch thickness are specific dimensions designed to match the 3S-GE and 3S-GTE engine configurations.
