Cometic Volkswagen 2.0L 16v TFSI EA888 .027in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 84mm Bore

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket specifically for Volkswagen 2.0L 16v TFSI EA888 engines. It features an 84mm bore and a thickness of .027 inches, designed to provide a strong seal between the cylinder head and the engine block. This type of gasket is built for high-output engines and doesn't require any additional sealants for installation.

Cometic's MLS gaskets are constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel, which gives them increased strength and the ability to resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle demanding sealing environments and various surface finishes. The center layer is also stainless steel and can be varied to achieve different gasket thicknesses, like the .027 inch on this particular gasket. This construction makes them suitable for use with both aluminum and cast iron engine blocks, and they can handle the stresses that arise when mating different metals.

This gasket is a solid option for many Audi and Volkswagen models from the mid-2000s to early 2010s, including vehicles like the Audi A3, Volkswagen GTI, and Volkswagen Passat. Always double-check your vehicle's specific fitment to ensure this gasket is the correct one for your engine build.
