Cometic Toyota Tacoma / Landcruiser 98mm 5VZ-FE .066 inch MLS Head Gasket Left Side

When you're rebuilding the top end of your 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma, T100, 4Runner, or Tundra, a solid head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built for the 5VZ-FE engine and features a compressed thickness of .066 inches, specifically for the left side application. MLS gaskets are known for their strength and ability to handle the demands of modern engines without needing additional sealants.

Cometic constructs these gaskets with multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and corrosion resistance. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This coating is designed to handle harsh sealing environments and varying surface finishes, making it suitable for sealing aluminum heads to either aluminum or cast iron blocks. The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness control.
