Cometic Toyota Tacoma-2RZ/3RZ 97mm .120 inch MLS-Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with three layers of stainless steel, featuring embossed outer layers coated with Viton rubber. The compressed operating thickness is 0.120 inches, and it's designed for a 97mm bore, making it a solid choice for your 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma, 1996-2000 4Runner, or 1995-1998 T100. This construction is ideal for sealing aluminum heads to either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can handle the shearing forces that arise from the different materials expanding and contracting.

The multiple stainless steel layers give this gasket increased strength and the ability to rebound, which helps resist corrosion. The Viton coating on the outer layers is a heat-resistant material capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a reliable seal even in demanding conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thickness requirements, like the 0.120 inches specified for this gasket. Because it's an MLS design, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying the installation process.
