Cometic Volkswagen 1.8/2.0L EA827 .070in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 85mm Bore

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Volkswagen or Audi EA827 engine, this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is a solid choice. It's designed for 1.8L and 2.0L displacements with an 85mm bore, and it's 0.070 inches thick, which is a common size for many rebuilds. This gasket fits a range of vehicles, including models like the Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, and Audi 4000 from the 1980s and early 90s.

Cometic builds these gaskets with three to five layers of stainless steel. They use stainless steel because it's strong, resists corrosion, and has good rebound characteristics, which helps it maintain a seal under pressure. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with a Viton rubber material. This coating is heat resistant up to 482°F (250°C) and is designed to handle tough sealing environments and different surface finishes on your engine block and cylinder head.
