Cometic Volkswagen 1.8/2.0L 16v TFSI EA888 .036in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 83mm Bore

If you're working on a Volkswagen 1.8L or 2.0L TFSI EA888 engine, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket is built to handle the job. It's designed to provide a strong seal between the cylinder head and the engine block, which is crucial for keeping combustion pressures contained and preventing coolant and oil leaks. This gasket is a well-built replacement for many Audi and Volkswagen models from the early 2010s through 2018, ensuring a proper fit for a wide range of applications.

Cometic builds these gaskets using multiple layers of stainless steel for 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°F (250°C) and works well with both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks. The compressed operating thickness is 0.036 inches, and it features an 83mm bore, making it suitable for engines with Valvelift technology. Because it's an MLS gasket, it doesn't require any additional sealants, simplifying the installation process.
