Cometic Volkswagen 1.8/2.0L 16v TFSI EA888 .030in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 83mm Bore

Cometic Gasket is known for making well-built sealing solutions for a wide range of vehicles. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is designed for Volkswagen 1.8L and 2.0L TFSI EA888 engines, featuring an 83mm bore and a thickness of .030 inches. It's built to handle the demands of high-output engines, making it a solid choice for rebuilds or performance applications.

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 temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit and works well with both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different thicknesses, like the .030 inches on this particular gasket. Because it's an MLS design, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying installation.

This gasket fits a variety of vehicles, including many Audi A3, A4, and TT models from the early 2000s through recent years. It's a direct replacement part designed to fit right and seal effectively.
